New York Stock Exchange
Description
The building that put the “finance” in the Financial District and made the name “Wall Street” synonymous with bankers, brokers and cash, the New York Stock Exchange is not just a landmark—it’s a living piece of American history, and the world’s largest stock exchange, where billions of dollars of stocks are traded daily. Though tours of the building are no longer offered to the general public, visitors can snap a picture of the building’s famous, columned façade from outside.
