Located in the heart of the Financial District in a distinctive Italian Renaissance-revival style building, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York boasts the largest depository gold reserve found anywhere in the world, larger than even Fort Knox, containing 7,000 tons of gold. One of 12 regional reserve banks in the Federal Reserve System, the building assumes a fortress-like presence you would expect from a massive vault containing so much buried treasure located five stories below street level.
**Please note: **At this time, the Museum and Learning Center is not open to the general public and is only open to school groups and student programs. Each school group must have a confirmed, advance reservation to visit and must be accompanied by at least one adult educator/chaperone.
