| Built by
President W. V. S. Tubman in the 1960s, the Executive Mansion has functioned
more as the seat of the executive branch than a residence after the Tubman
era. |

| After his visit
to Liberia in 2000, Professor Elwood Dunn reported that the presidential
papers of Tubman, Tolbert, Doe, Sawyer (Interim) & Taylor were seen
intact in the Executive Mansion & under the care of a Records Manager. Organization was a significant issue,
however. |
