Top 7 reasons to live in the Financial District (not in any order):
1. Security is ridiculous. You have your regular blue and white. Add in some Downtown Alliance guards. Sprinkle in some Federal Reserve cops, and finish it off with almost every building housing a doorman/concierge.
2. Stone Street – nothing like drunk Wall Street guys on a Thursday night.
3. After living here for two years, I can tell you the average age of residents is around 30. Not too shabby.
4. If you own a dog, like I do, your dog will have more friends than you do. You can’t go more than two feet at all hours without running into another dog down here!
5. Running along the East River or the Hudson River cannot be beaten.
6. Need a train? Which side of Manhattan, east or west? You want to get there, we have all the trains you need. We got the A, C, E, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, N, R, J, M, Z
7. The history of the joint. This is the birth place of New York City!!!! Wall Street, cobblestone streets, George Washington, etc. It is full of it.
