Alexander Hamilton had a very close relationship with New York City. He was a student at Kings College (now Columbia University), participated in the Battle of New York in 1776, commanded New York troops at Yorktown, practiced law and served as Secretary of the Treasury when New York was the Nation's capital. Hamilton died in New York City in 1804 as a result of wounds received in a duel with Aaron Burr. He is buried one block from Federal Hall in Trinity Church Yard. more...
