Between Broadway and South St, Financial District · New York, NY
Why you should go…
Wall Street runs 1,984 feet through Lower Manhattan, from Broadway east to South Street and the East River. Its name comes from a wooden palisade the Dutch built in 1653 to guard the northern edge of New Amsterdam. Along the way you pass the New York Stock Exchange Building, the former J.P. Morgan headquarters at 23 Wall Street, and Federal Hall National Memorial at 26 Wall Street, where George Washington took the oath of office as the first president.
