In the summer of 2017, the Downtown Alliance convened a diverse group of over 30 stakeholders to develop a new vision for the Stock Exchange District. The New York Stock Exchange report is the result of that nine-month collective effort. Its vision is grounded in the realities of a complex urban environment, security parameters established by the NYPD, and the needs of the district’s diverse set of users. It’s designed to be implementable in stages, over several years, by both public and private sector actors, and it articulates a joint vision for a more attractive and secure district.
