Lower Manhattan, including Wall Street, anchoring New York City's role as the world's principal fintech and financial center,[1] with One World Trade Center, the tallest skyscraper in the Western Hemisphere
Lower Manhattan, also known as Downtown Manhattan or Downtown New York, is the southernmost part of Manhattan, the central borough of New York City. Lower Manhattan is the core area for business, culture, and municipal government administration. The neighborhood is the historical birthplace of New York City[2] and for its first 225 years was the entirety of the city. It serves as the seat of government of the entire City of New York itself.[2] Because there are no municipally defined boundaries for the neighborhood, a precise population cannot be quoted, but several sources have suggested that it was one of the fastest-growing locations in New York City between 2010 and 2020, related to the influx of young adults and significant development of new housing units.[3][4]
Despite various definitions of Lower Manhattan, they generally include all of Manhattan Island south of 14th Street. Anchored by Wall Street and the Financial District in Lower Manhattan, New York City is the world-leading global center for finance, and fintech.[1] The Financial District houses Wall Street, the New York Stock Exchange, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, and other major financial institutions. Lower Manhattan is home to many of New York City's most iconic buildings, including New York City Hall, the Woolworth Building, and One World Trade Center, the tallest skyscraper in the Western Hemisphere.
