The Obamas will be moving into the Hay-Adams Hotel, which is named for two people with connections to three presidents. The hotel is named for two people who had homes on the property before the hotel was built: Henry Adams, a distinguished author and descendent of Presidents John Adams and John Quincy Adams; John Hay, a private secretary to President Lincoln and was secretary of state under Presidents William McKinley and Theodore Roosevelt.
The Obamas are scheduled to move into the Blair House, the White House's official guest house, on Jan. 15.
