Boxwood Hall, in Elizabeth, Union County, New Jersey, United States, was built around 1750 by Elizabethtown's Mayor Samuel Woodruff, and from 1772 to 1795 served as home of Elias Boudinot, U.S. Representative and former President of the Continental Congress, and a signer of the Treaty of Paris in 1783 ending the American Revolutionary War. Alexander Hamilton was a friend of the Boudinouts,and he frequently visited at Boxwood Hall for much of the time he studied at Elizabethtown Academy. Boudinot and others met George Washington here for a luncheon and then escorted him to Manhattan for his inauguration on April 30, 1789.^[5]
