This drawing shows the upper level of the Executive Mansion as a plan, with walls, doors, and stairways marked in outline rather than as rooms furnished or pictured. The White House had been rebuilt after British troops burned it in 1814, and by 1853 the second floor held the private living quarters of the president's family along with more formal rooms. Plans like this record how the building was arranged before later renovations altered its interior, which makes them valuable to historians and architects tracing its development.
