The United States capital has always been Washington D.C. Before then we were the 13 colonies.

While George Washington was alive, the United States was run from New York first, then from Philadelphia.

The capital was designed to be where Congress met. The Congress met, prior to Washington D.C.'s existence, in Philadelphia, New York City, and many other locations.
