8 Stop 8 of 12 on Hamilton Invented the Money

Federal Hall

Wall Street, New York City

A Preview

"Federal Hall — the marble temple with the bronze Washington standing out on the steps. Two things about it. Washington was inaugurated President of the United States on this spot. And this is not the building. The actual Federal Hall stood on this ground. The first Congress sat in it, the Bill of Rights was written in it, and the federal government of the United States opened for business in it."
