At one end of Wall Street sits Trinity Church. Behind the church is a cemetery. A young man named Alexander Hamilton, whose ideas were fundamental in making Wall Street into what it is today, chose this cemetery as his final resting place.

It would be a complex task to navigate a financial recovery between Wall Street and the US Treasury.
