Specific picture descriptions: Photos above with "i" icons next to the bracketed sequence numbers (e.g. "[1] ") are described as follows:
1. WHOUS_190904_014.JPG: History of the White House Fence To learn more about the fence replacements project, please visit go.nps.gov/whitehousefence The design and materials of the White House fence have evolved over the past two centuries. The first perimeter fence was a wood rail fence constructed during Thomas Jefferson's presidency around 1801. Later, he created additional privacy by replacing the original wooden rail structure with a stone wall. In 1818, beautiful iron gates and railings were added to the north front. The structures created an elegant facade along Pennsylvania Avenue when they were completed in 1819.

The United States Secret Service and National Park Service began planning for a new fence in 2014. Construction began in July 2019 and is expected to continue into 2021.

6. WHOUS_190904_047.JPG: A New and Improved White House Fence To learn more about the fence replacements project, please visit go.nps.gov/whitehousefence The White House fence is being replaced to meet modern security needs. The current 6'6" fence will be replaced by an approximately 13' fence with anti-climb and intrusion detection technology.
