Make a reservation for the free tour. It's wonderful.

I tried to take tours to see the gold many times but always bad luck. It seems they don't want to do tours at all. Poor Service

Central Bank. Wonderful hosts. On the ground floor is a museum on the history of economy and money. recommended!

This was awesome! It was pretty tough to get tickets, but they aren't impossible to get. if you do some recon beforehand and have a couple different days you can go, you will have a really cool time. You just have to plan about a month in advance for this!!

Interesting place to visit. You get a feel of how the Fed works. People are kind, helpful and competent

... definitely a prefered place to keep your gold bars.

Very interesting is the visit to this federal bank, especially the cable, where you can see the gold bars, the American reserve. To book the visit, which is free, you must log in online at the bank's website one month before entry.

It is a cool sightseing for those who enjoy economy.

Perfect place to learn something about monetary policy, history of US money system, and see the gold in the lower levels. Also we had a really nice tour with our guide.

Great source for Information regarding Federal Accounts...

I had a good experience at the federal reserve that included a learning experience as well as good hospitality. The tour guide was really nice and knew the answer to every question that someone asked her. It was fun to learn about the federal reserve, but to be honest there wasn't much to do after we went down to the gold storage. On the tour they should have more then just quotes on a tv screen. For example they could show a documentary on how the federal reserve was made and the process of what the federal reserve does. This would make the experience better instead of standing around looking at a poster with little pictures. Other then that it was a cool building to be in with the great architecture throughout the building.

Some things I learned on the trip were that the Federal Reserve holds a quarter of the worlds gold. I found that interesting that countries would trust us with all that gold. I believe we should charge countries to hold their gold because we are doing them a service with little in return except for the title of having the biggest gold storage in the world. I also learned about money and the process it goes through. For example I didn't know the government shredded money to circulate in new money. This made me realize why old money is such a good collectors item because a lot of the old money gets replaced by the new ones. It was also cool how we learned about the stamps that each dollar has that shows where the bill came from. This isn't very important, but I found it very interesting.

TBL: The Federal Reserve is a great place to visit for an educational experience and I recommend other schools to go here on a field trip.

It's true, free things are always the best. After a bit of difficulty in getting the tickets (free) for the chance to take a tour at the FED I had the chance to visit this building. The tour lasts an hour, it is not allowed to take pictures and the phones must remain completely turned off. The tour is interesting and the guide was very helpful and nice!

I don t know English, but I would have responded to the FED system.

Awesome place to visit.. People who work there are friendly

Too all you dumb ass's paying this your retarded lolol this is just a way for them to make money off of you i cant stop laughing at how many gullible people there are in the world.

Ask yourself...

1) Why do we have a Federal Reserve System ?
2) Why is Federal in the name when it is NOT part of the US Gov t?
3) Why is it not subject to transparent audit?

Most importantly:
4) Why do we (the American public) simply ignore & allow this?
5) Why is it allowable to have no one in authority answer these questions?
6) Why is it acceptable to immediately paint anyone who asks these questions as a conspiracy theorist , or not a patriot , or simply a nut job ?

That is an unfathomably giant amount of authority & power to allow in one body without true , transparent , PUBLIC oversight.

Is it not?

This place is awesome. It stabilizes our country's boom bust cycles. Ever since its creation, recessions and panics have occurred at a way less frequency and have been shorter lasting - don't listen to what the fringe crackpot Austrians tell you.

Nice place The architectural part of the building it's amazing that historical part of it overwhelming great place. They show you how they destroy money and the gold is just a beautiful pictorial be had. No pictures also a great a memory to have. Wheres my gold hahahahahahahahaha

Don't show up expecting a tour without a reservation. You'll be shooed away by unfriendly armed guards.

This is the New York office of the Federal Reserve Bank. They have extensive out reach programs to explain what this government agency does.

These activities include a display about what the Fed does. One of the things they do is hold the gold assets of various governments. A tour of their display on their various activities and a tour of the vaults where they hold the gold is available.

People have to sign up well in advance - several months at least- for this tour. The tours are a lot of fun, especially the gold vault part is a lot of fun. It's free.

there is a woman there by the name of jennifer banks whom has just possably scammed me.

This company got me for $750, before I totally understand they were a scam.....PLZ becareful.
For its your OWN FAULT, it they woop you out your $$$$

The entrance doors have "Employee Only" signage so let the security officer on the sidewalk know you are there for the tour, and after an ID check, you are radioed in for clearance to enter and go through airport-type security check. Very easy. I was hoping to hear more about monetary policy but the tour is focused more on visiting the very impressive vault of gold. Still very welcoming, informative, and def worth my time for my 10th visit to NYC. You can tour the museum part while you wait for the tour to start and stay as long as you want after the tour to see it all. Restrooms in the back of it. I appreciated the 3 complimentary graphic novels available which explains the system to a younger audience. Tickets are so hard to come by so if you sign up, pls attend. Our group was def less than 25.

What a creepy building when you stop to notice it. There are only small signs that indicate that this bulding is the federal reserve bank, there are cameras everywhere on it. The poor police guard at the door seems unassuming, the bulding towers above him, its clear that the law is serving the capital.

interesting building with a fortress like look including barred windows. Only appropriate as eighty ft below street level is more gold than in Fort Knox. The Federal Reserve does offer tours but I 've never been. THIS IS THE BUILDING THAT THE BAD GUYS ROB IN DIE HARD 3. THE ONE WITH SAMUEL L JACKSON AND JEREMY IRONS

Hello friend, I have a doubt that is bank or only in the historic center. since from that bank I got a gmail saying that I am transferring but it asks me for money for a power of attorney. If anyone could inform me, I thank them.

The school tours they give are very informative. I would suggest 4th grade and up based on the content. They answer any and all questions that the students (or parents) have. The visit to the 'vault' isn't much to look forward to. You basically ride an elevator down to the vault level and they explain that you can't go into the vault because of security. Understandable. What country wants kids and parents walking around next to their gold?

Tours fill up fast and the guards aren't very nice if you don't have a printed ticket. E tickets will not work.

The privately owned Federal Reserve definitely caused The Great Depression by contracting the amount of currency in circulation by one third from 1929 to 1933. The Federal Reserve System is accountable to no one; it has no budget; it is subject to no audit; and no Congressional committee knows of, or can truly supervise, its operations. The Federal Reserve, virtually in total control of the nation's vital monetary system, is accountable to nobody and this strange situation, if acknowledged at all, is invariably trumpeted as a virtue.

I interviewed for a position at this iconic bank. Wonderful setting, nice people. Thank you for the interview.

looks like they store something secretive there and a lot of money too :)

SCAM! SCAM! SCAM! They called me claiming that I won "$8.350". But the funny part is.. Is that they wanted me to give them $200, + a complete different number calling me saying the same thing but this time.. Wanting $550! These bastards stole my money!!! They should be evicted, shut down, and thrown in PRISON. Whatever you do... DON'T TRUST THESE BASTARDS!!!

I found this really enjoyable, the gold vault was what we wanted to see but being honest the information about the fed reserve bank given beforehand was way more interesting. Our tour guide was Anna and she did a great job responding to everybody's questions.

Committed comrades must make an appointment to visit the vault before going there, otherwise they can only look outside the high wall.

Awesome and the visit is nice to do, but you just have to edit your English before because no translator

Hello, I am from California, I need help can someone explain me it's this a really a Bank or not.

Great to see the building. Unfortunately it is a bit closed so the experience is not 100%

It is not a tourist spot and stands quietly. As expected, it is a solid structure.

To do. Too bad no visit in French. Good level of English essential to follow the explanations on the history of American finance. We go down to the last level to see all the chests filled with ingots !! Impressive.

I couldn't print a ticket, and even tho I had the ticket on my cellphone they didn't agree to let me in

What an awesome place to learn about our history. The men with the rifles outside were a bit intimidating

The tour is very good. You can enter the famous vault and see the piles of gold bars stored. We had a super friendly guide. The tour is not very long, an hour or less. It is worth it.

I originally came here as a consolation prize for not being able to get into the stock exchange and wasn't expecting much. Boy, was I surprised! The museum tour is excellent and gives a good overview of the history of the building and the purpose the Fed serves. Next they take you underground into the vault to gawk at massive piles of gold bars which is worth the trip alone. Lastly they gave us little bags of shredded money as souvenirs. What a trip!

The tour's pretty short but you're free to wander around after. It's also free but there is a very limited number of spots available so make sure to plan ahead. If you're in the area I'd definitely recommend checking it out
