9. 60 Wall Street: Occupy Wall Street’s Other Home

Polaroid

60 Wall Street is the only other indoor space downtown that rivals the 180 Maiden Lane space. Quite understandably, this is where the organizers of Occupy Wall Street had their meetings despite it being home to Deutsche Bank, one of Wall Street’s most important players. The large indoor space is beautifully appointed and becomes the cut-through between Wall and Pine Streets for rush hour travelers heading to the Wall Street subway station, or for workers on their lunch break who want to enjoy the offerings of its various food vendors. Incidentally, there are more coveted public restrooms here along with a peaceful play to rest in between rush and lunch hours.
