The Vice President's Residence was built as the home of the Superintendent of the Naval Observatory in 1893. The house became the home of the chief of naval operations in 1923. Congress turned the home into the Vice President's Residence in 1974. a white, brick-walled, Victorian-style home with 9,150 square feet of floor space, is located on the corner of 34th Street and Massachusetts Avenue in Washington, D.C. It's on the grounds of the United States Naval Observatory and was originally built for the superintendent of the observatory in 1839. The house became the official residence of the Chief of the Naval Observatory in 1928 (for this reason, it's still referred to as the "Admiral's House"). In 1974, Congress designated the house the official temporary residence for vice presidents. Before the decree, the vice president lived in temporary houses and hotels.

I thought that too, until I started looking it up. I recall something about Biden not being able to move in because of remodeling. Seems my memory is faulty. Here's what I found: The VP's official residence is Number One Observatory Circle (Located on the grounds of the US Naval Observatory.) The President-Elect moves into Blair House a few days before the inauguration. (Don't know where the VP-Elect lives at that point.)
