Activity itinerary

Charging Bull (Wall Street Bull) (Pass by)

The Charging Bull, also known as the Wall Street Bull, is a powerful symbol of financial optimism, strength, and resilience located in the heart of Manhattan's Financial District.

Broadway (Pass by)

Just steps from #9 Broadway, the Charging Bull offers more than just a photo op — it’s a reminder of resilience, especially as it was a gift from the artist after the 1987 stock market crash.

Canyon of Heroes (Pass by)

Perched directly across from Battery Park and the Charging Bull, One Broadway witnesses both commerce and celebration—a silent guardian of Lower Manhattan’s vibrant history

Trinity Church (Pass by)

ust steps away, at 89 Broadway across Wall Street, stands Trinity Church, a National Historic Landmark with roots dating back to 1697—its 1846 Gothic Revival spire soaring to 281 ft and once the tallest point in New York City

Soldiers' and Sailors Monument New York (Pass by)

Towering at approximately 100 feet tall on Riverside Drive and 89th Street, this majestic marble-and-granite memorial, completed in 1902, honours New York’s Union Army soldiers and sailors who fought in the Civil War

Canyon of Heroes (Pass by)

The Canyon of Gloom is not an official landmark like the "Canyon of Heroes" on Broadway—but it's a colloquial or poetic term sometimes used to describe certain stretches of New York City’s Financial District, particularly narrow streets flanked by towering buildings that can feel dark, imposing, and devoid of sunlight.

Zuccotti Park (Pass by)

Zuccotti Park, nestled in the heart of Lower Manhattan between Broadway and Church Street, is a rare 24/7 public plaza that blends sleek granite design, leafy trees, and modern art just steps from the World Trade Centre

Federal Reserve Bank of New York (Pass by)

Constructed between 1919 and 1924 (with a 1935 eastward extension), this 14-story structure was crafted in a Florentine Renaissance style by York & Sawyer, evoking the commanding presence of Italian palazzos like the Palazzo Strozzi and Palazzo Vecchio

New York Stock Exchange (Pass by)

The NYSE building at 18 Broad Street, designed by George B. Post and completed in 1903, showcases a majestic white marble façade with towering Corinthian columns and a sculptural pediment—earning its status as a National Historic Landmark and symbol of financial stability

Fearless Girl (Pass by)

Installed on March 7, 2017—just before International Women’s Day—by State Street Global Advisors, the bronze statue by Kristen Visbal portrays a 4 ft tall girl with hands poised on hips and chin raised in quiet strength. Originally placed to face down the iconic Charging Bull at Bowling Green, it was intended as a week‑long installation but remained due to its overwhelming resonance.

Federal Hall (Pass by)

Built in 1842 on the very site where New York City’s original city hall stood (1703–1812), this Greek Revival building marks the location of America’s first Capitol, where the inaugural session of Congress met under the new Constitution

House of Morgan (Pass by)

Situated at the southeast corner of Wall and Broad Streets, the “House of Morgan” refers to the iconic 23 Wall Street—a four-story neoclassical marble palace that became the nerve centre of J.P. Morgan & Co. from its completion in 1914

Wall Street (Pass by)

At 12:01 PM on a bustling Thursday, a horse-drawn wagon filled with 100 pounds of dynamite and 500 pounds of heavy metal slugs exploded in front of the J.P. Morgan headquarters at 23 Wall Street, directly across from the New York Stock Exchange.
