The Federal Hall


This statue of George Washington stands outside of the Federal Hall National Memorial on Wall Street. The Federal Hall is the site of George Washington's inauguration as the first President of the United States.

On these grounds is also where the Bill of Rights was introduced in the First Congress.

I have been interning here in New York City for several weeks now and I have had the opportunity to pass this building several times and it is just amazing to think of the history that happened in this area.


I took this picture of the statue to show everyone Northeast Alabama Community College. I know many of you appreciate great history like this.
