Then I notice these little steps in the back.. Didn't notice that in the 360 view page. They're not there. You begin the tour right in that area.

So they put the 3 steps in there for height of people in the back. I don't know.. you know these freemasons and their 3's or something. haha.
When I was looking at the floor in the 360, noticed this on the floor between the couple sets of 2 posts.
45 stars around it.. says:
1817
1792-1902
1952

Oh to the navigation tools on the right you have a 1 and 0.. that's how you go up floors.. wait that looks like a basement or something.
Asking bing about this.
"That’s a good question. I did some research and found out that the numbers and stars on the floor of the Entrance Hall in the White House have some historical significance. They are part of the design of the marble floor that was installed in 1952, during the Truman renovation of the White House1. The floor was designed by Lorenzo Winslow, the architect who oversaw the reconstruction of the White House after it was found to be structurally unsound in 1948.
The numbers and stars represent some important dates and events in the history of the United States and the White House. Here is what they mean:
1817: This is the year when James Monroe became the fifth president of the United States and moved into the White House, which had been rebuilt after being burned by the British in 1814. Monroe was the first president to occupy the White House after its restoration by James Hoban, the original architect.
1792-1902: This is the period when the White House was built and remodeled according to the original plan of Peter Charles L’Enfant, a French engineer who designed the layout of Washington D.C. under the direction of George Washington. L’Enfant’s plan for the federal capital city included a grand avenue connecting the president’s house and the Capitol building, which later became Pennsylvania Avenue4. His plan was revised and modified by several architects over time, such as James Hoban, Benjamin Henry Latrobe, Thomas U. Walter, and Charles Follen McKim. The last major renovation of this period was done by McKim in 1902, during the Theodore Roosevelt administration, which gave the White House its current neoclassical style.
1952: This is the year when Harry S. Truman completed his extensive renovation of the White House, which lasted from 1948 to 1952. Truman decided to rebuild the interior structure of the White House after it was found to be dangerously unstable and unsafe. He preserved the historic exterior walls and most of the original rooms, but added new features such as a balcony on the South Portico, a bomb shelter under the East Wing, and a new Grand Staircase in the Entrance Hall. The marble floor with the numbers and stars was part of this renovation.
45 stars: These are the number of stars on the flag of the United States from 1896 to 1908, when there were 45 states in the union. The last state to join during this period was Utah in 1896. The next state to join was Oklahoma in 1907, but it did not affect the flag until 1908. The reason why Winslow chose this number of stars for his floor design is not clear, but it may have been a tribute to L’Enfant’s plan for Washington D.C., which was based on a grid of 15 streets radiating from a central point, forming 45 angles."
What's this about 15 streets radiating from a central point.. must be that fuckin exact point. See, I got it pretty damn close. lol
Hang on.. Looking at the intersecting points.. compared to the layout diagram.. it's not where this thing on the floor is. That's too far down. It's just on the other side of the wall. The intersect point is where the photographer is with the president staff triangle formation pic. Like the top of the triangle.. the all seeing eye. lol.
