Jefferson was persuaded to scale down his grandiose plans. Land confiscated from loyalists was reserved for capital buildings on Shockoe Hill, where the present state capital stands. Removal of the state capital from Williamsburg to Richmond did not remove the danger of British attack.

Government papers were quickly rowed across the river to Manchester (now southside Richmond) for safekeeping.
