The historical birthplace of New York City, Lower Manhattan is where the city began in the 17th century and where its government still sits today. One World Trade Center — the tallest skyscraper in the Western Hemisphere — rises over a district dense with iconic structures: the Woolworth Building, New York City Hall, the Stonewall Inn, and the New York Stock Exchange on Wall Street. The waterfront is walkable, the café and restaurant scene is substantial, and the area anchors New York's role as the world's leading financial centre.
