How did Wall Street get its name?

The epicenter of the city's Financial District, Wall Street was named after an actual wall that was built on the street in the 17th century by the Dutch to protect them against attacks. Now home to the New York Stock Exchange and major finance corporations, Wall Street is used to describe the country's main financial sector.
