You meet to the right of the George Washington statue outside Federal Hall on Wall Street, the city’s original political stage, the river of commuters and delivery trucks pushing past your feet. The tour steps away from glass towers into narrow streets where stone curbs and cast-iron fire escapes still keep the rhythm of older Manhattan.
