The Other White House(s)

In an event of national crisis which left Washington DC unfit for capital, where in other cities can a temporary (not emergency one, so no bunker) presidential compound be established?
Can certain skyscraper in New York City or Chicago or other fit that function or just the City Hall?

Thanks in advance!
 
Skyscrapers would be unsuitable for security concerns. My guess is they would just use Camp David, as it already has the security and communication infrastructure.

The nature of the crisis would help here and the time frame for the ‘temporary’ relocation of government. There is more than just the White House to consider, much of Washington is given over to the US Federal government.

How is Washington made uninhabitable or unfit as the Capital?

Either standard series of dirty bomb or biochem attacks by terrorists or social uprising in the area
And after limited nuclear exchange where DC got hit

Most of these would result in the Federal government being decentralised and relocated to secure military facilities.
