The Octagon House, also known as the Colonel John Tayloe III House, is located at 1799 New York Avenue, Northwest in the Foggy Bottom neighborhood of Washington, D.C. After the British destroyed the White House during the War of 1812, the house served as the temporary residence of James Madison, President of the United States, for a period of six months. It is one of only five houses to serve as the presidential residence in the history of the United States of America and one of only three (along with the White House and Blair House) that still stand.

  • The Octagon House, aussi connue comme la Colonel John Tayloe III House, est une bâtisse remarquable située au 1799 (en), dans le Northwest et le quartier du Foggy Bottom de Washington, aux États-Unis. (fr)
  • The Octagon House, construida entre 1789 y 1800, fue diseñada por el doctor William Thornton, el arquitecto del Capitolio de los Estados Unidos. La casa se construyó para el coronel John Tayloe, al cual pertenecía la plantación de Mt. Airy, a unos 150 kilómetros al sur de Washington D. C. en el condado de Richmond, en Virginia. Tayloe tenía la fama de ser el propietario de la plantación más rica de Virginia, y se construyó una casa en Washington siguiendo el consejo de George Washington. En 1814, el coronel Tayloe ofreció el uso de su casa al presidente James Madison y a su mujer como una casa temporal debido a la por parte de los británicos. Madison usó la habitación circular encima de la entrada como estudio, y allí firmó el Tratado de Gante que acabó con la Guerra de 1812. (es)
