America's presidents have had to make many important decisions during their terms in office. They made many of these important choices in the famous Oval Office. The Oval Office is the private office of the President of the United States of
America. (A) Located in the West Wing of the White House, the Oval Office represents the power and responsibility of the
president. (B) Before President Howard Taft built the original Oval Office, most presidents living in the White House did their
work in the room that now called the Lincoln Bedroom. (C) In 1909, President Taft built the first Oval Office in the West
Wing of the White House. (D) Taft built the office because he wanted his staff to have a center from which they could all
work. A fire in the West Wing damaged the original Oval Office in 1929. President Herbert Hoover, however, restored the
office after the fire. When Franklin Roosevelt became president, he moved the Oval Office to a different section of the West
Wing so he could easily enter the office in his wheelchair. President Roosevelt completed the modern Oval Office in 1934,
and it has stayed in the same place ever since.
