Visitors Tour the White House, 1890s
The East Room draws tourists in the 1890s, during the second
Cleveland administration, to admire the "New Grecian" decorations that
had been added by President Grant in 1873. In the 19th century, the
East Room became one of the most famous rooms in the United States and
was a mecca for visitors to the capital.
