Caption: "Subtreasury, Wall Street, New York. Washingion [sic] Statue Marking the Spot Where Washington took his Oath of Office, April 30, 1789, Aug. 6, 1934." The original building on this site, constructed in 1700, served as New York's City Hall, then as the Capitol for the newly-created United States under the Constitution of 1789, and was the site of George Washington's inauguration as the first U.S. President. The original building was demolished in 1812, but a new building, designed to house the U.S. Custom House for the Port of New York, was opened in 1842. It is this building that is seen in the photograph. The new building subsequently housed one of six U.S. sub-treasuries between 1862 and 1920. A statue of George Washington (John Quincy Adams Ward, sculptor) was erected in front of the building in 1882, to commemorate the approximate site of Washington's inauguration.

The first, built in the 1880s by the Sisters of Providence, burned in a 1915 fire.
