Wall Street is a huge business center in down town New York. Wall Street isn't actually one street but it is made up of multiple blocks. The large companies like Goldman Sachs and many law firms are located on "Wall Street".

The Dutch from New Netherlands originally named Wall Street "de Waal Straat" The Street is a 0.7 mile long slave market in the 1700's, but expanded to have numerous alternative uses. The area was significant historical figure where around 24 stockbrokers signed an agreement on one of the buttonwood trees located there. This made wall street a center of economics for the United States.
