Wall Street is a famous street in New York City. It
got its name from a wooden wall. The site of the wooden wall is that of the
street now. The wall was built in the 1600s. New York was then
a Dutch city. It was set up by people coming from Holland in Europe. It was
called Amsterdam. The American Indians were not always friends of the Dutch; nor
were the English. So the Dutch built the wooden wall to protect
themselves. The wall is gone now. But Wall Street reminds the
people of New York of the Dutch who settled there.
