Underside of Broken Floor Structure
This photograph by Abbie Rowe of the National Park Service shows the underside of the floor of the room where Margaret Truman's piano sank in the summer of 1948. The damage is seen from the Family Dining Room after the plaster ceiling had been removed. This work was part of President Harry S. Truman's large-scale 1948-1952 renovation of the White House.
