Congress founded the US Supreme Court in September 1789 by passing the Judiciary Act of 1789 at Federal Hall in New York City, the Nation's capital from March 4, 1789 through December 5, 1790.

The six-justice Supreme Court met for the first time on February 2, 1790, at the Royal Exchange Building (sometimes called the Merchant Exchange Building) in New York City.
