To be honest, the NYSE wouldn't catch my attention if not for the gigantic christmas tree sitting in front of it, or the security barricades surrounded like a 100metres around its entrance.

Used to be a lot better. Security around there is a drag. Guess it's necessary though. They added sound proofing so it is hard to appreciate the maddness.

The security and protective shields between visitors and the reality of the Stock Exchange that it feels more like a stage set than the root of all greed. People are ushered through channels and deposited out the other side as though it's a privilege to get a peek at the truly important rich people that make the world such a... More

Of course, why wouldn't you go here when in NT=Y? It's the biggest financial capital of the world. Easy to view at street level.

This isn't a tourist attraction in the same sense as the Empire State Building or Top of the Rock, it's just a beautiful building with some historical and cultural merit. Go see it with this in mind and you'll not be disappointed.

Last year I and several others were taken down to the Floor during trading hours.The term "trading" is now archane as the only trading you could see was if you looked up at the myriad of screens asscociated with the various kiosks maintaied for the handfull of market makers/specialists now scattered around the once bustling floor.

You can't go inside, and the outside isn't all that exciting. Take a look at a picture and you get the gist of what's going there.

Visit Rikers Island instead -- that's where the denizens of Wall Street belong. The general atmosphere in the neighborhood is strictly expense-account based. Working girls pretending to be Adminisrtrative assistants, or vice versa. Drinks and food designed to impress by their price rather than their quality. "An amusement park for the damned" that's how a 40year resident and NY TIMES... More
