George Washington was inaugurated as the first President of the United States in 1789, an event associated with Federal Hall in New York City.

Background and detail
Background. The supplied source material is sparse, consisting of a disambiguation-style entry that distinguishes Washington's first inauguration in 1789 from his second inauguration in 1793. Within the declared scope, the sourced fact is that a first inauguration of George Washington occurred in 1789, marking the start of his presidency.
Location and Date. The legacy record places the inauguration at Federal Hall in New York City on April 30, 1789. The retrieved passages confirm the year 1789 and the event's identity as the first inauguration but do not supply the day or the venue, so those elements are carried forward as corrected legacy data rather than passage-sourced claims. New York City is the only allowed place name.
