Overview

This two-hour walking tour explores how money was made and the financial history of Wall Street in New York City. The tour begins outside the Alexander Hamilton Custom House, a Beaux-Arts building that houses three floors of art and artifacts related to trade, commerce, and Native American history. Next, the group visits Bowling Green, the city’s oldest park, once called “the Plain” by the Dutch, who used it as a parade ground, meeting place, and cattle market. The tour continues to Battery Park, which has served as a recreational area, defense site, and immigration center for over two centuries. Visitors then see the Charging Bull statue, a symbol of Wall Street’s financial strength. The route includes an exterior visit to Fraunces Tavern Museum, historically used as George Washington’s headquarters, a site for peace talks with the British, and early federal offices. The walk proceeds along Wall Street, where the guide points out the New York Stock Exchange building, Federal Hall, Trinity Church, and the JP Morgan Building from outside. The tour finishes with stops at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, known for its secure underground vaults holding the largest reserve of foreign gold bullion, and Trinity Church, the oldest congregation in New York City and the burial place of Alexander Hamilton, a key figure in the development of the American financial system. A licensed guide leads the entire route. Entry inside the New York Stock Exchange is not included.
