The house of the President. On one of my tours, we passed by the Federal Executive Building. This building was kiddie corner to the White House. We went to turn down the street the tour always goes one, but the road was blocked off and there were guards all around. Then the driver went to drive us passed the White House (which by the way, the street in front of the White House is closed to vehicle also thanks to 9-11). Along the streets for tow blocks were men in uniform. These men held a big black bag in one hand and the other hand was in the bag. The driver said "oh yeah, you know exactly what is in those bags!" He guessed the President or Vice President was going to or returning from the Federal Executive Building. It was pretty cool to see the security they really get. I don't think a President is going to get assassinated anytime soon.
This is the closest they let visitors get-thanks to 9-11.
