The US Sub-Treasury (now Federal Hall Memorial National Historic Site) is on the left, corner of Nassau Street. The old Federal Hall was demolished in 1812. The current Neoclassical building was completed in 1842 as for the Custom House. In 1862, the building housed the US Sub-Treasury. In 1883, the statue of George Washington, by the sculptor John Quincy Adams Ward, was unveiled on its steps.

The old Assay Office, built in 1824, is next to the Federal Hall. The old Drexel Building, built in 1873, is on the right.
