None of the BBs, and I believe no boutiques are actually on wall street. All BBs are either in Tribeca or midtown (same with boutiques), the largest hedge funds are all in midtown, lower east side, or in Connecticut. So what wall street companies are actually on wall street?

Are you in high school? Wall Street is a simple metonymy for high finance in NYC or even the Northeast
He has a point though
Yeah obviously. I'm just wondering if any companies are actually located there. All HFs, BBs, EBs, MFs, etc are all located in midtown, tribeca, lower east side, but not actually wall street.
I think the poster is merely trying to figure out if the saying "There are no banks actually on Wall Street" is true
Okay but how many high finance companies are actually high all the time?
This is what everyone is asking
Equinox, Cava, and Whole Foods, the bastions of modern New York
yeah and the halal food cart 😂
Hermes & Blue Bottle as well😂
The New York Stock Exchange?
Oppenheimer and Cantor are the two largest after Deutsche Bank left in the past year. Some smaller boutiques are in the area with two V20 law firms that I can’t remember the names of.
Citi and RBC are right by near Battery Park City and Goldman slightly north of that. Think some other MM banks are in that area near the WTC.
Are u sure cantor is on wall street? Isn't it on the upper east side?
I’ve heard from somewhere that it is a lot of data centers and HFT stuff. They want to be physically closer to the exchange to reduce latency.
The NYSE data center isn't physically located at Wall St & Broad St, It's actually based on Mahwah New Jersey. High frequency trading firms like Citadel, Jump, Jane St rent server space in this Mahwah location to execute high frequency trades.
The actual NYSE trading floor doesn't really handle trades anymore, except for maybe TV coverage and some ceremonial stuff ever since equity trading has been completely electronified over the last 2-3 decades.
Brown Brothers Harriman, Canaccord Genuity, Oppenheimer, S&P, AIG, LSEG, ICE / NYSE are a few. Most of the big firms are uptown now as you noted
