Historic designations

Is there a reason that neither the article prose nor the infobox makes any mention that the White House is a National Historic Landmark? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chris857 (talk • contribs) 09:46, February 22, 2013 (UTC)

Under the paragraph about construction, add "Stonemason Collen Williamson trained enslaved people on the spot at the government's quarry at Aquia, Virginia. Enslaved people quarried and cut the rough stone that was later dressed and laid by Scottish masons to erect the walls of the President's House. The slaves joined a work force that included local white laborers and artisans from Maryland and Virginia, as well as immigrants from Ireland, Scotland, and other European nations."
