Alexander Hamilton Circle
The Museum of the City of New York opened to the public on Alexander Hamilton’s birthday in 1932, and a bronze sculpture of Hamilton adorns the Museum’s façade. Hamilton has long been revered as one of our nation’s founding fathers and a key architect in shaping New York City as a modern commercial and financial center. The Museum’s patrons’ program is named in honor of this brilliant and influential New Yorker.
Members of the Alexander Hamilton Circle provide essential support for the Museum’s general operations, and in appreciation of their generosity and commitment, they receive special benefits at each level.
