(Shealah Craighead\/The White House via AP, File) <\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">The latest redo was no small update: The total gut renovation took a year to complete.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">The White House opened the classified space to a group of reporters this week for a rare visit to check out the new look. President <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/joe-biden\">Joe Biden<\/a> got a tour on Tuesday and then received an intelligence briefing in the space, said Marc Gustafson, the Situation Room director.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">\u201cHe loved it, he thought the update was fantastic,\u201d Gustafson said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">\u201cFolks, the newly renovated White House Situation Room is up and running,\u201d Biden said in a post on X, formerly Twitter. \u201cMy thanks to everyone who worked on this incredible facility.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">The renovated space has a modern-but-vintage vibe. Old floors, furniture, computers and other tech were stripped out and replaced with pristine mahogany paneling from Maryland, stonework from a Virginia quarry, LED lights that can change colors and flat-screen panels. See-through glass offices fade to opaque with the press of a button. The whole space has that new car smell.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">But there are still plenty of landline phones: No cellphones are allowed in the secure space for security reasons. (There are cubbies to stow phones near a door leading outside, where a baggie with some <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/cocaine-white-house-biden-drugs-west-wing-e6bf17a4bfe7d450aa66005ad6feeec6\">cocaine was found<\/a> earlier this year.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">Access is tightly controlled and generally restricted to the president\u2019s national security and military advisers. Anyone listening in on classified briefings needs clearance. Even the contractors working on the renovation had to get temporary security clearances. Illuminated signs flash green for declassified and red for classified.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"heading__StyledHeading-sc-123v3ct-0 iKlOni a-heading2\">Kennedy and Bay of Pigs<\/h2>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">The hush-hush complex was created in 1961 by the Kennedy administration after the Bay of Pigs invasion. President John F. Kennedy believed there should be a dedicated crisis management center where officials could coordinate intelligence faster and better.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">That was an upgrade, to be sure. But it wasn\u2019t exactly comfortable: Nixon administration national security adviser and then Secretary of State Henry Kissinger described the space as \u201cuncomfortable, unaesthetic and essentially oppressive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">After the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, the White House did a significant Situation Room update, along with a broader upgrade to presidential communications on Air Force One and the presidential helicopter. Presidents used the complex for secure video conferences before such tech became more portable. The last renovation was in 2007.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">The complex is staffed around the clock by military and civilian personnel who monitor breaking developments worldwide.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">It has a reception area with a U.S. seal in stonework. Behind that is the main conference room, known as the \u201cJFK room.\u201d To the right are a smaller conference room and two soundproof \u201cbreakout rooms.\u201d To the left is the \u201cwatch floor,\u201d a 24-7 operations center.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">\u201cIt\u2019s a marriage of the traditional and the modern,\u201d Gustafson said of the new space.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">Workers dug five feet underground to make more room and install cutting-edge technology allowing White House officials to bring together intelligence from different agencies with the push of a few buttons.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">\u201cNow we have all the capabilities,\u201d Gustafson said.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"heading__StyledHeading-sc-123v3ct-0 iKlOni a-heading2\">Call it the \u2018whizzer\u2019<\/h2>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">For those in the know, referring to the \u201csit room\u201d is out. It\u2019s the \u201cwhizzer,\u201d stemming from the complex\u2019s acronym: WHSR. (Washington does love a good acronym.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">Gustafson said the goal is to never need a complete renovation again. The new space was designed so panels can be removed and updated and new technology swapped in, usually with less space needs. A room once taken up by computer servers has become a smaller conference room.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">The JFK room has a long wooden table with six leather chairs on each side and one at the head for the president. Leather armchairs line the walls. A giant, high-tech screen runs the length of the back wall. A 2-foot (0.6-meter) seal is positioned at the president\u2019s end of the room, larger than the old seal.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">There aren\u2019t many photos of the Situation Room, but one of the most famous is the image of Obama, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Vice President Biden and others watching the bin Laden operation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">That took place around the corner from the JFK room in a smaller conference room that no longer exists. It\u2019s been cut out entirely from the space and sent off to Obama\u2019s presidential library, Gustafson said. In its place are two smaller rooms.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"heading__StyledHeading-sc-123v3ct-0 iKlOni a-heading2\">Old phone booth<\/h2>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">Another item preserved for history is an old phone booth that stood in the complex. It was sent to storage for Biden\u2019s eventual presidential library. Gustafson didn\u2019t know if anything had been sent to Trump.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">Gustafson said staff members have to be ready to prepare rooms for classified briefings on a moment\u2019s notice, and Biden has been known to pop in to meetings unexpectedly, particularly <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/russia-ukraine\">as Russia was invading Ukraine<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">While the area was closed for renovation, White House officials used other secure spots on the campus. Gustafson said the renovated Situation Room is having a soft opening of sorts: About 60% of the staff are back in the space with more coming every day.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">One cosmetic upgrade Gustafson pointed out is the ability to swap out the different 2-foot-diameter seals that hang on the JFK room wall, depending on who is in the meeting. Seals for the president, vice president and executive staff are kept in a nearby closet and can be quickly subbed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">Gustafson said visitors previously remarked that the room didn\u2019t reflect Hollywood\u2019s grand imagining of the space.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph-sc-1tqpf5s-0 kEzXdV body-paragraph body-paragraph\">He said they now declare: \u201cThis looks like the movies.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-8162386273903324\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7859258044\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.federaltimes.com\/management\/leadership\/2023\/09\/08\/white-house-situation-room-gets-cutting-edge-tech-in-50m-upgrade\/\">READ SOURCE<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The White House Situation Room \u2014 a space of great mystique and even greater secrecy \u2014 just got a $50 million facelift.
