I enjoy doing a little stroll down Wall Street when I am in the financial district area. More because I enjoy history and so much of it has occurred on this eight city block street. I also enjoy architecture and tall buildings. The New York Stock Exchange Building (the world's largest stock exchange) is the main highlight here with its marble facade, colonnades and triangular pediment with figures that represents commerce and industry. Nearby is Federal Hall where George Washington took the oath of office to be the first President in 1789. This was also home to the first Congress, Supreme Court, and Executive Branch offices. There are many other building of significance here that are worth checking out as you walk down its narrow street. Alexander Hamilton is buried nearby at the Trinity church. An unsolved bombing occurred here in 1920 that left many dead. And then there was the stock market crash of 1929. Nearby are lots of restaurants and food carts if you need a quick bite. Places of interest to check out are the Charging Bull sculpture, Zuccotti Park, Trinity Church, Oculus and the Freedom Tower. The Fearless Girl statue currently stands in front of the New York Stock Exchange Building.
Tree is nice, less crowded than rockerfeller. There is a lot of work people and a lot of tourists.
Where it all began - there is much history on Wall Street. 1st President of the United States, George Washington's Inauguration, 1789, at Federal Hall at 26 Wall Street (built 1703). The first skyscrapers were built in the area: the Woolworth building (built 1917) , 40 Wall Street (built 1929) . Alexander Hamilton is buried across the street at Trinity church. The streets are still narrow and close. The brisk New York pace was set here. Worth an exploration for everyone who ventures to the southern tip of Manhattan. Head west to the newest skyscraper, the Freedom Tower at the site of the former Twin Towers. Our grief lingers but we rise again and again undefeated. Yes, History. Take it in. Explore! I love this great city. Thank you for reading.
Possibly one of the most famous "Street" names in the USA, Wall Street is in Lower Manhattan. It dates back to the earliest settlements in the city by the Dutch, when it was "de Waalstraat." Today, Wall Street is known as the financial center of the United States. It is home to the world famous New York Stock Exchange. The "Charging Bull" is here. The statue of George Washington who was inaugurated here in 1789. The Bill of Rights was passed here. Alexander Hamilton is buried here. So yeah, it's famous. Since 9/11, security here is obviously paramount. Vehicle blockades and concrete barriers abound. NYPD security booths and cameras are everywhere. But it's still a spot that you absolutely need to visit when you come to New York. [Review 16536 overall - 318 in New York - 46 of 2022.]
Wall Street is an eight-block-long street in the Financial District of Lower Manhattan in New York City. It runs between Broadway in the west to South Street and the East River in the east. The term "Wall Street" has become a metonym for the financial markets of the United States as a whole, the American financial services industry, New York-based financial interests, or the Financial District itself. I take the 4 or 5 train to Wall Street sometimes. I hang around for the day. I used to have friends that lived nearby. After 911 you could get nice apartments for a very low price for Manhattan! Now when I go it's to see the sculptures. I also have some favorite restaurants in the area. It's a fun day. The architecture is amazing. The history is worth a read on Wikipedia. I can't explain this atmosphere. I feel different in these surroundings. It's unlike any other neighborhood. There's a little of everything on sale. There's such a variety of shops I can't get to everything I want to see. I'm highly recommending you visit when you vacation in NYC. See for yourself. Although I'm not into the Financial aspect of Wall Street's fame I find this particular place very moving from a historic perspective.
This is one of most busiest financial district area of New York City that I have seen... And what I remember seeing is that famous bull that is right in the middle of wall street!!! You should see how many tourists like me especially wanted to go and see that very famous Bull!!! And the one thing that I like most about Wall Street is my street name which was William!!!
Such an historic and beautiful place to visit. Might not think that Wall Street is beautiful but it really is very historic and has beautiful architecture. Narrow roads and streets and alleys that just make it so cozy and old feeling. September 11, 2001 is still remembered here very vividly. It is of course a day that no one will forget. In this area they make it visible as well. We were just walking through and enjoying the sights and the architecture and it was still very moving to be in that area.
Let's face it, walking (almost anywhere) in NYC is no walk in the park. Wall Street is one hot mess- dodging people from every angle. There's always some construction work happening. It's damn madhouse to drive anywhere m. And what's the fu*king deal about taking a picture with a bull and have the bulls' balls as your backdrop? it's not cute! In the area to help my husband with some paperwork and went to Tower 4's 21st Fl. Views were spectacular. Although skies were gray that day, I still got a glimpse of the Bayonne Bridge all the way from where I was standing. On a holiday weekday, we drove in and was easy to get around. Any other day, as my husband tells me, it's insane.
So much fun at Walls street !! Must go !!! Its a very famous street, bunch of cheap souvenirs, food, Ice cream trucks
The experience is both illuminating and frustrating. It is illuminating in that you feel the financial power that emanates from the buildings (we went on a weekend so we did not see the suits). I liked the narrow streets and the sense of history. It is frustrating because it is a major tourist stop and there are so many people! A good percentage of them seem bent on proving to the world how stupid they are by climbing on statues or hogging the scene so no one else can take a picture. And then we come to the Bull of Wall street. When we were there several tour buses unloaded and the front of the bull was overwhelmed with people and picture takers. Some idiot got the idea "let's take pictures of the bull's ass." And that led to "let's take pictures of the bull's ass and touching his nuts." Simply hysterical. At that point we headed out and went to the Museum of Native Americans at the bottom of the street.
Not a whole lot going on here besides busy New York City. The bull is a well known instagramable spot, but good luck getting a good photo! There are tons of people here all the time trying to get a picture, and you know how crowded NYC can be. It's a cool statue but other than that there's little to see. Grab a pic if you are passing by but don't go out of your way to make a special trip. Do make sure to see the near by trinity church!
Heck yea! I love money and as such this was a must see for me! I will caveat this biased review by mentioning that it is quite anti climactic as this whole street include buildings that aren't particularly special. Die hard with a vengeance was filmed here as well and as such I had a particularly enjoyable time. I was walking wall street late at night and stopped by the new york stock exchange, federal reserve and city hall (which is a bit off from wall street). As I said there is nothing special about the sights but if you are into investing and money like I would consider myself to be then you will appreciate the area that you are in.
Bears and bulls on Wall Street!! The one and only Wall Street is in New York, period. Dutch named "de Waalstraat" who were the first settlers of New Amsterdam erected a wall on the northern boundary of the New Amsterdam settlement as defense against an anticipated British attack. (source: https://archive.archaeology.org/online/features/nycolonial/name.html) Wall Street has survived over two hundred years volatile stock market tragic crashes, hardships, struggles to rise, staggering losses, and gains. The passion to gain money is high. The Financial District is all about hustle and bustle where literally is "time is money." One can invest like a conservative bear or invest like a aggressive bull. For the out-of-towner, it is worth a visit to the Financial District as historic buildings nearby are Federal Hall Monument, New York Stock Exchange, Federal Reserve Bank of New York Building, American Stock Exchange Building, Trinity Church, and St. Paul's Church reverting back to colonial era when New York was the original capital. Be prepare to wait for your turn for a photo with Charging Bull. Wall Street lies the strength of America's commerce.
We meandered around the Wall Street area and sought out some of the well known landmarks and statues. We located The Bull, the NYSE, and accessed the subway to/from other locales. It would ideally be an entire day in each area of NY to fully appreciate all of its unique features. read more
Had to walk Wall Street and shed a few tears of money lost during a bear market. We also visited the famous bull praying for a bull market year to come. There were two lines for photo ops, one in front of the bull and the more popular line, the back end of the bull! Haha! read more

12.24. I saw NY Stock Exchange and the little girl statue. Today is Christmas Eve so there is a tree and many decorations. It is so beautiful. But there were some not so harmonious sounds and newspapers. Wall Street is the dream of many business persons. read more
Great place to visit if you want to see the heart of US's financials. The buildings are pretty much the same in design. There are a few nice sites in and around Wall Street, the bull and Washington statues. If you have time in your NY trip it is worth a visit, but it would not be my top 10 things to see in NY. read more

Wall Street is the financial district of New York City,[1] named after and centered on the eight-block-long street running from Broadway to South Street on the East River in Lower Manhattan. Over time, the term has become a metonym for the financial markets of the United States as a whole, or signifying New York-based financial interests.[2] It is the home of the New York Stock Exchange, the world's largest stock exchange by market capitalization of its listed companies.[3] Several other major exchanges have or had headquarters in the Wall Street area, including NASDAQ, the New York Mercantile Exchange, the New York Board of Trade, and the former American Stock Exchange. Anchored by Wall Street, New York City is one of the world's principal financial centers Great Place to visit and people to know in New York City read more

Wall Street is one of those places you have to visit if you're exploring NYC. We happened to be here just as people were getting off work which was kind of interesting. Lots to see on Wall Street including the Stock Exchange, the famous Bull, the Trump Building, etc. read more

Wall Street is iconic. However, it really is just another busy street in NYC filled with high rises and large buildings. There are many residents who use this thoroughfare to get to and from work daily, as there is a subway stop here. And don't forget the many tourists who flock here to experience what Wall Street is all about. read more
Hello Wall St., the source of all my stress. Nice to see your external walls again. Not much to see here, unless you get a tour of the place, but still worth a stop to see the outside of the center of America's financial district. read more

If it's not filled with tourists it's filled with finance folks 365 days of the year...they inserted a few square pegs along the street as a tribute to the wall that used to run down the street (hence the name of the st) when the Dutch first settled here read more
