If walls could talk, Number One Observatory Circle would share some stories. The residence has welcomed every Vice President since Walter Mondale in the 1970s and, today serves as Kamala Harris's home.
Located on the northeast grounds of the U.S. Naval Observatory in D.C., the property was built in 1893 for the observatory superintendent. However, with their offices located on the White House grounds, the home's close proximity made it a convenient base for the Vice President. Over the centuries, hundreds of notable figures have passed through the Queen Anne-style property doors, but arguably nobody knows their way around the property quite like the former manager Philip Dufour, who served as social secretary to Vice President Al Gore.
