Mc says: The official residence of the Vice President of the United States is called Admiral's House, a large, white-painted, brick Victorian on the southeast corner of 34th Street and Massachusetts Avenue in the District of Columbia. A typical nineteenth-century country home in the Queen Anne style, it was built for the Superintendent of the United States Naval Observatory in 1893 on lands that had originally been owned by Margaret and Cornelius Barber, wealthy Georgetown landowners. In 1929, it became home to the U.S. Navy's Chief of Naval Operations, and was named 'Admiral's House.' In 1974, the house was designated as the first official residence of the Vice President of the United States. Since that time, Vice Presidents Mondale, Bush, Quayle and Gore have resided there with their families. Fri Nov 10 12:32:36 CST 2000 (Delete Entry)
