White House

The White House in Washington, DC used to be the official residence of the President of the United States. After the Great War, however, all that is left in its place is a giant radioactive crater. This is likely that in the event of Nuclear War, the White House is a Prime target.

It can be difficult to find the location of the White House. The way to get there is to exit the Penn. Ave. Northwest station, go up the stairs, and proceed straight until you reach the building to the north. You will see a manhole cover on the sidewalk at the southwest corner of the building. Enter, take the first left, follow the corridor, and you will eventually find a door to the left that goes to the location of the White House, at the bottom of the crater. The area is quite radioactive, so take a Rad-X before going through the door. There are also a few Glowing Ones (possibly also one or two Super Mutants), so be ready. At the top of the stairs is a Fat Man, several Mini Nukes, and several units of Rad Away. From the west entrance, located across the street from Reilly's Rangers compound. Inside can be found a large room in the center, in this room, and throughout the hallway's leading up to it, is an on-going battle between the Talon Merc group and the Super Mutant, along with a Behemoth (mutant).After clearing out the room, be sure to search the area, to find a Missile Launcher, a few Missile, and a random assortment of ammo. Don't forget to loot the Behemoths body! Other than that, there's really nothing to see.
