The Roosevelt Room is a meeting room in the West Wing of the White House, the official home and principal workplace of the President of the United States. Located almost in the center of the West Wing, and near the Oval Office the room is named for two related U.S. presidents, Theodore Roosevelt and Franklin D. Roosevelt. The two arguably contributed more than any other presidents to the design and construction of the West Wing.
Theodore Roosevelt hired architect Charles Follen McKim to reorganize the layout and use of the White House. This included constructing the West Wing in 1902 and moving executive offices out of the central White House. The original structure, some of which is still extant in the present West Wing, was originally intended to be temporary. With some modifications by William Howard Taft the West Wing remained largely unchanged until a fire on December 24, 1929 during the administration of Herbert Hoover. Because of the recent stock market crash, Hoover chose only to repair rather than expand. In 1933, early in the administration of Franklin Roosevelt, the president began a series of meetings with staff architect Eric Gugler to enlarge and modify the West Wing. Roosevelt moved Taft's Oval Office, centered on the south side of the wing, to its present location in the southeast corner adjacent to the Rose Garden. This made moving to and from the Executive Residence to the Oval Office quicker, and allowed for more privacy, a concern in concealing FDR's paralysis.

A room is any distinguishable space within a structure. Usually, a room is separated from other spaces or passageways by interior walls; moreover, it is separated from outdoor areas by an exterior wall, sometimes with a door. Historically the use of rooms dates at least to early Minoan cultures about 2200 BC, where excavations on Santorini, Greece at Akrotiri reveal clearly defined rooms within certain structures.
In early structures, diverse room types could be identified to include bedrooms, kitchens, bathing rooms, reception rooms, and other specialized uses. The aforementioned Akrotiri excavations reveal rooms sometimes built above other rooms connected by staircases, bathrooms with alabaster appliances such as washbasins, bathing tubs, and toilets, all connected to an elaborate twin plumbing systems of ceramic pipes for cold and hot water separately. Ancient Rome manifested very complex building forms with a variety of room types, including some of the earliest examples of rooms for indoor bathing. The Anasazi civilization also had an early complex development of room structures, probably the oldest in North America, while the Maya of Central America had very advanced room configurations as early as several hundred AD. By at least the early Han Dynasty in China (e.g. approximately 200 BC),comfort room complex multi-level building forms emerged, particularly for religious and public purposes; these designs featured many roomed structures and included vertical connections of rooms.

It is no secret now that Franklin D. Roosevelt had the unique challenge of hiding his crippling disease of what was believed to be polio throughout his terms as president. He went through great lengths to hide this disease from the press and the public. One of his many tricks of disguise can still be seen on a secret track, hidden below Grand Central Terminal. -------------------------------------------------- Follow BI Video on Twitter: http://bit.ly/1oS68Zs Follow BI Video On Facebook: http://on.fb.me/1bkB8qg Read more: http://www.businessinsider.com/ -------------------------------------------------- Business Insider is the fastest growing business news site in the US.

Check out the TOP 5 THINGS TO DO on ROOSEVELT Island! Part of Manhattan, technically, Roosevelt Island has long felt lost, under the shadow of the Erector-Set Queensboro Bridge in New York's East River. It was once Blackwell's Island, then Welfare Island, has been home to insane asylums and prisons, then hospital out-patients and UN workers. A tram then subway only reached the island in the mid '70s. And it's kinda weird. The slightly drab, uniform housing (for the most part, there are new condos that glimmer more) feels like an improved version of a Stalinist housing block. In a good way, I mean. Things are changing. Roosevelt Island has always offered nice riverside walks without crowds, good looks to Manhattan's Upper East Side. Last year a $25 million renovation of the famed tram – ...
Travel video about destination Mount Rushmore. Set within the Black Hills in the state of South Dakota, is one of the most famous landmarks in the USA, the Mount Rushmore National Memorial. Four monumental portraits of the most famous American presidents have been carved into the granite and symbolize a kind of spectacular tribute to democracy. Since their unveiling in 1941, the huge faces of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln have created a good deal of interest. The area around Mount Rushmore is also most striking, as the Black Hills' mountain range is a masterpiece of nature. Twenty-five km southwest of Mount Rushmore is another stone image that towers up from the landscape, the Crazy Horse Memorial. Created in 1947, it commemorates the famous...

Just off the coast of Lubec, Maine, is Campobello Island, New Brunswick, home to Roosevelt Campobello International Park. The park preserves the site of Roosevelt Cottage, a summer home of President Franklin D. Roosevelt and his family. The cottage was built by Roosevelt's parents in the 1890s, and the family used the property for several decades. Until 1921, Roosevelt spent most of his summers on the island. It was here in August of that year that Roosevelt was struck with polio, severely limiting his future use of the island. Much of the park remains undeveloped and features a scenic drive, hiking trails, some beaches, picnic areas, and rugged New Brunswick coastline.

Roosevelt being left alone in the morning. While you can't see him too much you can hear him clearly. He howls/barks/cries for first ~20 minutes, and settles to a whimper and tails off for ~10 minutes after that. At about 3 minutes you can see him pee on the wall.
