Learn moreThere are few structures in the United States with the history and reverence of The White House, designed by James Hoban. On July 16, 1792, President George Washington chose this James Hoban design from six competing designs from renowned architects. This six-story Sandstone structure was meant to command respect for the nation from citizens and foreign visitors. Construction took place from 1792 - 1800 and it was rebuilt by Hoban following the fire of 1814. The assembled White House model stands 8.8" (22.4cm) wide on a base with printed name label and includes a booklet with facts about the building, its construction and its history.

A big help from my son :) and a little from my daughter ;) we build The White House. It is awesome!! Enjoyed building and it looks incredible!! I do not like the flag it would be look better with the US flag. Detailed and looks beautiful. Small pieces was hard for my little one but a help from me didn't ruined her love for Lego. Didn't take too much time to build. We love it!!!Play Experience5.0Value for Money5.0Was this helpful?

Purchased for: Self
This set has just everything you would expect from an architecture set. Amazing building techniques, stylish design and of course very interesting facts and history. The first thought I had was; Well, it´s seems kinda cool, but not really special. When you´ve finished it however , you discover how beautiful it actually is. And the size of it! Much bigger than I imagined! All in all a great addition to the collection and a must have for you Americans. If you´re thinking of buying this set I would definitely recommend you to buy it as soon as possible since it´s been available for five yeras now. Well done LEGO and the Architecture Team! Keep up the good work!Play Experience5.0Value for Money4.0Was this helpful?

Average rating5out of 5 stars5.0Honestly the Best Set I Have Purchased in Awhile
I would recommend this to a friend!
wow. just wow. ok so lets start with the price. when i judge legos in terms of value, i tend to so say, ok, $1 for every 10 pieces. or, $10 for every 100. going by that rule, this set exceeds the value rule. next, its buildablity. i would not recomend this set to a younger builder, but it was mildly challenging which was a nice break from the other usually straight forward sets lego tends to produce. some parts (the windows) were extreamly repetitive but it was all worth it once the set was finished. there isnt much to the playablity, but it looks nice on a desk or on a bookshelf. this is a great addition to any collection is worth the money.Play Experience4.0Value for Money5.0Was this helpful?

Average rating5out of 5 stars5.0Lots of character!
I would recommend this to a friend!
This was actually my first set from the Architecture series but I held off on building it (I built the Farnsworth House first). The detail of this set was magnificent and the building techniques were pretty clever in depicting the White House's character. There was one point where I was assembling a pretty abstract portion of the house and after a few steps I admired the Lego designer's building methods because I would've never thought of that! This actually took about an hour and a half taking my time and I actually made a few mistakes miscounting the correct location of a stud or a brick but those mistakes were easily spotted once the pieces start fighting each other. This was a VERY fun build and awesome display. Highly recommend this set in this price range.Play Experience5.0Value for Money5.0Was this helpful?
