President's House
Philadelphia, USA
The President's House, an elegant Georgian mansion, served as the presidential residence from 1790 to 1800 when Philadelphia briefly acted as the nation's capital. Built in 1792, it features a classic brick façade that evokes the early American republic, with distinctive architectural elements like the grand portico and elegant columns.
Visit the historical site to see the foundations of the original house and explore the interpretive center, which highlights the lives of the first two presidents, George Washington and John Adams, and their families. It’s best to visit during the spring and fall for a more pleasant experience in the nearby park.
