Famously bizarre looking building designed to be maintained from the outside and keep business running smoothly inside. Still worth a look after all these years and if you woups of desks, known as boxes, modeled on the size of the tea chests that the early brokers and underwriters did business at. Can look and feel as manic as the stock... More

Very interesting building. Not sure if you can visit it normally but I went on open house weekend and visited for free. There is an amazing board room at the top which is furnished entirely from some stately home.
