The Financial District - A Region at the Southern tip of Manhattan

The Financial District is a region at the southern tip of Manhattan, and is the oldest part of the city and the undisputed finance center of the United States and the world. The New York Stock Exchange is located in this area, along with several other major financial offices. Until recently, there have not been many residential buildings here. In the late 1990's the conversion of pre-war commercial buildings into stunning residential homes began. The Financial District is now one of the most desirable neighborhoods in the city providing modern homes in a historical environment with the best access to everywhere in the city.
