Alexander Hamilton U.S. Custom House

Wall Street, New York City

A Preview

"That gigantic curved building with the four seated women out front is the Alexander Hamilton United States Custom House. And the small oval of grass beside it is Bowling Green — the oldest public park in New York City. The park first. The city set it aside in seventeen thirty-three and rented it out to three local men for one peppercorn a year."
