Wall Street West is a name used by real estate developers, city officials, and news media in the United States to call particular streets or places west of Manhattan, New York City that have a high concentration of Wall Street financial companies or a major exchange. The most notable for that is along the Hudson River waterfront of Jersey City, New Jersey. By the early 2020s, the construction of residential skyscrapers downtown made median rental rates in Jersey City among the highest of any city in the United States.
Downtown Jersey City's waterfront, found along the Hudson River, is dubbed Wall Street West.
