Expert Tip. The wall behind the Presidential Ballroom's primary table is reinforced with six feet of concrete and steel, installed originally following World War II for the safety of seated government officials. Another interesting historic tidbit, an automobile lift was constructed that elevated FDR's private car to the second-floor ballroom.
