George Washington, during his first term lived in the Samuel Osgood House, also known as the Walter Franklin House, located at 1 Cherry Street in Manhattan, NY. This home housed Washington, his family, and household staff, from April 23, 1789 to February 23, 1790, while New York City was the national capital. After the capital moved to Philadelphia, a mansion at 6th and Market Streets served as the executive mansion . Washington and his successor, John Adams, lived there until the Capital moved to Washington, DC. John Adams moved into the White House in November of 1800.
they built the white house because it represents the presidents...
George Washington That's all. It was still being built when he was in office.
The White House was built through the years of 1790-1800.
James Madison was living in the White House when the British torched it 1814. He had left some days earlier, but his wife in the White House until shortly before the British arrived. The house was built mostly of stone and so did not really burn down to the ground, but the interior was gutted making the house unlivable for a long time.
No- not white like it is now. It was natural stone, which was a cream color, when first built. After it was blackened by the fire that gutted during the War of 1812, it was painted white.

George Washington and John Adams were the presidents while the White House was being built. Pres. Washington died before its completion. Pres. Adams moved in shortly before the end of his term as President.
The federal government did not move to Washington until after Washington and Adams. The White House was not built until Jefferson's term.
Yes, he was alive before the white house was bulit
43 out of 44 because the white house was not yet built while George Washington was his 8 year term.
The White House has been in use by American Presidents since John Adams in 1800. Original construction began in 1792.

George Washington did not live there because it had not yet been built. The White House did not become the seat of the US government until 1800.
The White House is in the same place it has always been since it was built, all presidents have used the same builiding including Coolidge.
Shaiann Kaseyla Mom Had build the white house on her own ^_^
No- Franklin was never president and he died before the White House was built.
No. But Martha Washington's home before her marriage to George was called the White House Plantation. This was likely not the namesake of the Presdiential home, as the White House was not completed until after Washington left office. The first President to live there was John Adams in 1800.
