Ribbon-Cutting ceremony for newly furbished White House Situation Room
The first major renovation of the White House Situation Room took place in 2006 and 2007. The renovation was formally completed by mid-May 2007. On May 17, 2007, President George W. Bush and British prime minister Tony Blair participated in a video conference with members of their Iraq teams from the newly renovated Situation Room. The following day, President George W. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney officially opened the newly refurbished Situation Room in a ribbon-cutting ceremony.
Underneath the ribbon-cutting and protecting the surface of the table is the most popular conference pad Dacasso carries, the Classic Black Leather 17" x 14" Conference Pad (#P1010).
