Wall Street and the Financial District Art and Architecture
Tour description
Join us on this jam packed tour of lower Manhattan where we explore both the Wall Street area and the Tribeca neighborhood. This concentrated area is a living museum of New York City history. We will begin by looking at the remnants of Manhattan’s Dutch colony; visiting the oldest bar in the city, and the oldest cobblestone street. From there we will look at the sites from the Industrial Revolution; the New York Stock Exchange, and a classic Art Deco skyscraper. Other gems include a visit to New York's oldest church and the 911 memorial.
