New York was the first place Alexander traveled to when he arrived in the colonies. It was a melting pot of numerous cultures and languages, as well as a vastly different city from Alexander’s hometown of Saint Croix. New York was a vital location during the Revolutionary War, as it was surrounded by water and difficult to protect from the powerful British Naval force. New York is also where the Continental Army finally won the war in a calculated attack on Yorktown, leading to a British surrender. This was also the place that Alexander considered to be his home state, where he served the public for years, and was buried.
