1 Wall Street is a Privately Owned Public Space at the intersection of Wall Street and Broadway in the Financial District, one of the most iconic addresses in global finance. The POPS provides publicly accessible indoor space within a landmarked Art Deco skyscraper.
The building at 1 Wall Street was originally the headquarters of the Irving Trust Company, completed in 1931 and designed by Ralph Walker in a distinctive Art Deco style with a faceted limestone facade. The building's interior features one of the most spectacular banking halls in New York.
Wall Street has been the center of American finance since the late 18th century, when traders gathered under a buttonwood tree near this location to buy and sell securities. The New York Stock Exchange and Federal Hall are both located on the same block.
The building was converted from commercial office space to luxury residential condominiums in the 2010s, part of the broader transformation of the Financial District into a mixed-use residential neighborhood.
The POPS at 1 Wall Street provides public access to a building whose address has become synonymous with American capitalism, at the corner where the financial industry that shapes the global economy was born.
