Let's take a stroll through New York City's financial district. We'll pass by the Stock Exchange and the Charging Bull of Wall Street, then head to the 9/11 Memorial and the One World Observatory, and the Federal Reserve, which holds about 6,000 tons of gold. We'll also see St. Paul's Chapel, which miraculously survived the attacks, and finish up at the tip of Manhattan, where you can get a free view of the Statue of Liberty from the Staten Island Ferry terminal.

Wavertree
Wavertree. This incredible ship was launched in 1885 in England. It's one of the last large sailing ships made of iron. Wavertree carried all sorts of cargo around the world. It even survived a terrible storm off Cape Horn! After many years, it was found in South America and brought to New York. Today, it's a star attraction at the South Street Seaport Museum. Imagine the adventures this ship has seen!

Brooklyn Bridge. Construction on this iconic landmark began in 1870 and it officially opened on May 24, 1883. It was designed by John Augustus Roebling, and after his death, his son Washington Roebling took over, with his wife Emily Roebling playing a crucial role in its completion. This engineering marvel was the longest suspension bridge in the world when it opened. A surprising fact is that Emily Roebling was the first person to cross the completed bridge, and she carried a rooster with her as a symbol of victory.
