In the game
The game's Base of Operations. Division agents retake the White House in the opening mission and run the campaign from inside it.
The real place
The White House has been the home and office of every US president since John Adams moved in in 1800. The game's wiki describes it as both a landmark and the Division's headquarters in Washington.
Visiting
Public tours are free but must be requested in advance: US citizens through their member of Congress, visitors from abroad through their embassy in Washington. Without a tour, the best views are from Lafayette Square to the north and the Ellipse to the south.
