Little White House Becomes National Shrine at Warm Springs
Washington. The Warm Springs Infantile Paralysis foundation handed a five room house on a mountainside to Georgia to run as a museum and shrine. It is the only White House linked to a president’s final days with Roosevelt dying in a bedroom and signing letters in the living room. Built in 1932 for 8760 dollars, the cottage fused local style with Roosevelt touches and remains a symbol of victory over illness.
