Description
Stop At: Fraunces Tavern, 54 Pearl St, New York, NY 10004, USA
This tavern is absolutely loaded with history. It's here that many of America's Founding Fathers met to discuss the coming revolution as the British crown continued to squeeze the colonies. Today, in addition to still operating as a restaurant, the tavern hosts a museum on its upper floors that's definitely worth a stop for any history buff.
NOTE: This 2-mile-long tour covers the essentials of Wall Street in 1 hours.
Duration: 10 minutes
Stop At: National Museum of the American Indian, 1 Bowling Green, New York, NY 10004, USA
The National Museum of the American Indian is a branch of the esteemed Smithsonian Institute. It features a staggering 800,000 artifacts, ranging from South American gold coins to Inuit whalebone carvings from the Arctic. Anyone interested in anthropology simply must stop here.
Duration: 5 minutes
Stop At: Alexander Hamilton U.S. Custom House, 1 Bowling Green, New York, NY 10004, USA
Now a museum, this surprisingly lavish Custom House is an indicator of Manhattan's rising prominence on the global financial scene during the late 1800s and early 1900s. It gets its name, of course, from Founding Father Alexander Hamilton, the same one now immortalized in the hit Broadway musical.
Duration: 5 minutes
Stop At: Bowling Green, New York, 2nd Ave, New York City, New York 10128
Across from Bowling Green, New York City’s oldest park, you'll find a collection of statues with a long, and sometimes peculiar, history. The land, however, has a much longer history of human habitation, which you'll learn about here.
Duration: 5 minutes
Stop At: Charging Bull (Wall Street Bull), 26 Broadway, New York City, New York 10004
Sculpted in 1989 by Arturo Di Modica, the Charging Bull sculpture is Wall Street's most famous statue, but did you know it was initially placed here illegally? You'll get the full story, as well as the various controversies while admiring this impressive bit of public art.
Duration: 5 minutes
Stop At: 8 Broadway, 8 Broadway, New York, NY 10004, USA
Part symbol of empowerment, part marketing ploy by an asset management company, the Fearless Girl sculpture is a popular new addition to Wall Street's public art.

Duration: 5 minutes
Stop At: Trinity Church, 89 Broadway, New York, NY 10006, USA
This church dates back over 300 years, but not in its current form. The first two structures were heavily damaged and needed to be rebuilt. The current church was constructed to withstand the test of time, and so far it has passed that test with flying colors.
Duration: 5 minutes
Stop At: 11 Wall St, 11 Wall St, New York, NY 10005, USA
The heart of American finance and the world's largest stock exchange by far. About $170 billion pass through this exchange every weekday, but it has surprisingly humble beginnings.
Duration: 5 minutes
Stop At: 26 Wall St, 26 Wall St, New York, NY 10005, USA
Behind the impressive pillars of this hall, the American government was born. This is where George Washington was sworn in as the first President of the United States. It's also where the Constitution and the Bill of Rights were ratified.
Duration: 5 minutes
Stop At: Trump Building, Trump Bldg, 40 Wall St, New York, NY 10005, USA
Currently owned by Donald Trump, this towering structure has been host to numerous scandals over the years. As you admire its gleaming exterior, you'll learn all about the sometimes outlandish schemes and legal troubles of more than a few of the tower's corporate tenants.
Duration: 10 minutes
Stop At: Red Cube by Isamu Noguchi, 140 Broadway, New York, NY 10006, USA
This huge sculpture is exactly what it sounds like. According to the sculptor, "The cube signifies chance, like the rolling of dice." It's quite a sight up close!
Duration: 5 minutes
Stop At: Zuccotti Park, Cedar St, New York, NY 10006, USA
Zuccotti Park served as the heart of the Occupy Wall Street protests in 2011. Protestors tried to maintain a constant presence here as the demonstrations continued day after day. Here, you'll get to revisit that turbulent time and uncover the reasons behind it all.
Duration: 5 minutes
Stop At: 9/11 Memorial Pools, 180 Greenwich St, New York, NY 10007, USA
A somber, essential memorial. The 9/11 Memorial honors the 2,977 men, women, and children killed when two hijacked airliners flew into the World Trade Center buildings in 2001.
Duration: 5 minutes
Stop At: One World Trade Center, 285 Fulton St, New York, NY 10007, USA
One World Trade Center stands at nearly 1,800 feet, making it the tallest building in the nation. When it was built, this was the most expensive building ever constructed, and it shows. This gleaming symbol of American ambition is a can't-miss landmark.
Duration: 5 minutes
Stop At: St. Paul's Chapel, 209 Broadway, New York, NY 10007, USA
Built in 1766, this is the oldest surviving chapel in Manhattan. It was also frequented by George Washington himself! After the attacks on 9/11, this chapel became a round-the-clock relief center for first responders.

Stop At: New York City Hall, City Hall Park, New York, NY 10007, USA

Duration: 10 minutes
Stop At: Tweed Courthouse, 52 Chambers St, New York, NY 10007, USA
