THE WEST WINGTHE WEST WING• By the time the American Civil War came
around, the White House had become overcrowded.
• The location of the White House was in question, as it was on swamp land and fear of diseases such as malaria. Some officials proposed a new Executive home, but Congress rejected the idea.
• In 1891, the addition of an office building on the west side was proposed, now known as the West Wing.
• By the 1920’s, the West Wing addition was completed, which now contained a new Presidential Office, known as the Oval Office.
