| Federal Hall National Memorial :- Federal Hall National Memorial will be closed to the public beginning on December 3, 2004 for an extensive rehabilitation. It is estimated that the project will take 12 to 14 months. Staff will be reassigned to other Manhattan Sites. For further information, call the office of the superintendent at 212-825-6990. 26 Wall Street was the site of New York City's 18th century City Hall. Here John Peter Zenger was jailed, tried, and acquitted of libel for exposing government corruption in his newspaper, an early victory for freedom of the press. City Hall hosted the Stamp Act Congress, which assembled in October 1765, to protest "taxation without representation." After the American Revolution, the Continental Congress met at City Hall, and in 1787 adopted the Northwest Ordinance establishing procedures for creating new states. ACCESSIBILITY Federal Hall is fully accessible. A wheelchair ramp is located at the Pine Street entrance.
