Plans for Federal Capital in New York City

I'm looking for anything on the plans (c. 1787-1790?) to build a new federal "campus" in lower manhattan (before the decision was made to move the capital from NYC). I think there are plans somewhere for a federal capitol and maybe more in battery park.

Thanks!
 
it is actually the NYC mayor's office in Manhattan was the presidential Mansion and the surrounding area was going to house the depts., so look for pics of that. IIRC, the area around it is now a park and then across the street is presumably offices where the dept buildings would have stood, is office towers. The mansion was finished and converted the others weren't. Try Library Congress for records.
