thank you for clarifying the affordable housing student housing versus residential. that makes sense to me. so the weight at this project works, i think we already said this. we use a number of units calculated based off the base project. however there are a couple of factors here that i think i understand but i want to ask staff about just to make sure that it's clear because i think this will come up. this is a split height, lots of a lot being merged. 65, 55, and it seems like the base project was calculated with minimum dwelling unit sizes at the d5 feet >> correct. >> then you calculate 18% off that and the project itself has not that much bigger but slightly bigger units at 65 feet. >> 80 feet >> add. i'm sorry. so my question to you is-i think i know the answer to the spirit why wasn't the base project developed with the maximum height allowed? it's almost like if there were no state density bonus, they would have gone for a cu to bs 65 feet. why wasn't i consider the base project rather than at 55 feet? we want to try to maximize-i think what i'm getting too

room youate dining will spot the official white house gingerbread house. guys, when you see it everything on it is something you can eat. our pastry chefs have worked very hard to make this house possible. it is beautiful. they got the replica of the new white house garden with bo, sunny, and lots of cool stuff. the trees in that room, there are 56 lego gingerbread houses representing every state and territory in america. and then somewhere around the house we have supersized replicas of bow and sunny, guarding their presence. because we don't let them have their presence. i'm just kidding, they get presents. they are fine. altogether the folks who come to these halls over the next few weeks will see about -- how many ornaments do you think are in this house? 100. >> six. mrs. obama: 6, 10, 100? [laughter] 9000? , it's 70,000ou ornaments. i was pretty shocked at that. so, we can't wait. that is a lot of ornaments. we can't wait to start welcoming people into their white house this holiday season. who createdone these stunning displays, our volunteers, the

you own it, it is your house.nd the clintons wanted to be really inclusive and throw open the doors of the white house wide and have as many americans experience the home of the president as they could. i was exhausted and so was he. we entertained almost half a million people in the almost five years that i was there, but you want people to share and you figure out platforms so that you can see what's happening at the white house. most importantly though, it's a family home. and we often forget this. they live above the store. it's a very public life that they lead. and it is the place that they can retreat. the other thing we do not often realize and i think mrs. trump is going through now, hillary went through, mrs. obama, jackie kennedy, mrs. bush, you have to think through how you raise children or a child in the white house. to live some semblance of a normal life and protect them. they didn't run for re-election. they're a kid who got you know, put in the white house, chelsea at age 12. i think one of the m

and we truly wanted to make the white house the people's house.cularly during the holiday season. over the past eight years, through the seasons, we worked hard to achieve that goal by welcoming almost a half million guests to this house during the season. and thanks to our amazing volunteers, we are adorned the white house with about half million ornaments for our guests to enjoy. and way brought smiles to the faces of all those who enjoyed the 200,000 holiday cookies prepared by our outstanding pastry chefs. you all will get to have some are those today. that will make 200,020 or so. looking back, i'm proud to say we did our very best during the holidays to make americans of all backgrounds and walks of life feel comfortable and welcomed here in our nation's house. and we do all of this with the help of our extraordinary staff. yes, we have wonderful volunteers. though we have folks who, each year, take a very limited budget and very little resources and they make miracles happen in this house. so for our final holiday preview, i want to take a

then you have a press corps that becomes a kind of in-house part of the white house, the presidential experience so ronald reagan as he's walking out to the helicopter, ann compton can shout a question at him and he can decide to answer or not answer. but the idea was the press is close and is meant to disrupt the day so that we get access and we can ask questions and that the american people can have a proxy. >> is there enough of an understanding among the public, anne, about why journalists should be living in the president's house? >> it's the people's house. >> that's a good point. >> and the idea that we have some of the most important real estate in washington between where he wakes up in the morning and where he goes to work at his desk i gave the administration credit for doing one thing, they opened up the staff and the press office and experts within the administration with frequent off-the-record or on background or on-the-record briefings. they did try to put some of their major policy people out and they did it for those of us at the white house everyday. we'd go in thee

the more housing provides parking, the more rates of the housing goes all.the fact of the matter is you pay for the parking when you buy a condo. so starting with ground zero parking is the appropriate praise for the planning department staff to be and they are not supposed to be the developers. they're supposed to tell developers how to-the guidance you are giving them to please, give the guidance to your staff that says on van ness ave., no parking. how do you make van ness attractive for people that are dependent on transit? there's so many places in this city which you can't go around easily on transit because there's mountains in the middle of the city. that's a fact of life. but van ness ave., there's no excuse for people living there. a lot of people that are older citizens that need elevator and you transit, they can be accommodated easily on van ness ave. were franklin or polk street. so listen to -he's telling you could stop. no parking should be the starting point and people should have to give a rationale for every parking space beyond their own.

it's your house. and the clintons wanted to be met really inclusive and throw open the doors of the white house wide and have as many americans experience the home of the president as they could. i was exhausted and so was he. we entertained almost half a million people in the almost five years that i was there, but you want people to share and you figure out platforms so that you can see what's happening at the white house. most importantly though, it's a family home. and we often forget this. they live above the store. it's a very public life that they lead. and it is the place they can retreat. i think the other thing we don't often realize and i think that mrs. trump is going through now, hillary went through, mrs. obama, jackie kennedy, mrs. bush, you have to think through how you raise children or a child in the white house. to live some semblance of a normal life and protect them. they didn't run for re-election. they're a kid who got you know, put in the white house, chelsea at age 12. i think

that will be housed outside of the white house. it's on us. many of the first ladies initiatives are housed outside of the white house. that's how it is sustainable and that's how you build momentum and it shouldn't depend on who's in the white house if we've done our job right. >> on that point you are familiar with the white house, the council on women and girls, a big part of that is you placed folks to consider women as they make policy. again, something that the president early on in his first term through an executive action. so give me your best 30-second elevator pitch as to why the next administration should keep this. >> it's really important that you have a hope of government approach to ensure that every young girl has a fair shot. it is enough just to have an isolated office in the white house. what we've done is to empower people and agency, many of who are career workers who will be the long again after we leave to see it's the response which a look at everything they do through a gender lens. and that's the way you actually can
