White House Mysterious Dig
In this Aug. 11, 2012, photo, new sod is laid, the driveway repaved, and big holes that once marred the North Lawn of the White House are gone in Washington. The White House Big Dig is finally wrapping up, but the Big Reveal is proving to be a pretty big letdown. After nearly two years and $86 million worth of noisy and disruptive construction, the West Wing has emerged from its visual seclusion remarkably unchanged. And deep underground, whatever has been built there remains shrouded in mystery. (AP Photo/Manuel Balce Ceneta)
