EDITORS COMMENTS
The Tontine Coffee House, located on the bustling corner of Water Street and Wall Street in Manhattan, was a hub of activity for New York brokers in the 19th century. This historic meeting place played a pivotal role in the founding of the New York Stock Exchange, where traders would gather to discuss business deals and exchange information.
In this colour engraving from that era, we get a glimpse into the vibrant street scene outside the Tontine Coffee House. The image captures the hustle and bustle of commerce in New York City, with barrels lining the streets and workers going about their daily tasks.
As one looks at this snapshot of history, it's easy to imagine the energy and excitement that must have permeated through these streets as brokers worked tirelessly to build their fortunes. The Tontine Coffee House stands as a symbol of ambition and innovation, representing a time when America's financial markets were just beginning to take shape.
This print serves as a reminder of how far we've come since those early days on Wall Street, yet it also pays homage to the enduring legacy of those pioneering individuals who helped lay the foundation for modern finance.
