Downtown is the most historic neighborhood in New York City, full of fascinating museums, landmark buildings, architectural wonders, and much more. From the Statue of Liberty to the Smithsonian National Museum of the American Indian, Lower Manhattan should be at the top of any visitor's itinerary.

The Downtown Alliance is here to help you discover the area's many attractions. In addition to producing a host of handy visitor guides and maps, we provide the following services:

Visitor Information Kiosks

We believe a personal touch is imperative to strong visitor services. We co-operate two manned visitor kiosks located at the entrance to the World Trade Center PATH station (Church and Vesey Streets) and at the Staten Island Ferry Terminal. Visitors can stop by for maps, brochures, and friendly, personal guidance from our staff seven days a week.

The World Trade Center PATH kiosk is made possible in part by a grant from the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation, which is funded through Community Development Block Grants from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Heritage Site Markers

Lower Manhattan is filled with dozens of famous monuments and landmarks. To call greater attention to Downtown architectural and historic sites, the Downtown Alliance established 38 Heritage Site Markers of Lower Manhattan's most culturally significant places including Federal Hall, The Woolworth Building and Trinity Church.

Walking Tours

The Downtown Alliance offers a FREE walking tour of the Wall Street area every Thursday and Saturday at noon. For more information, click here.
