1st District - Federal Reserve Bank of Boston (http://www.bos.frb.org/) 2nd District - Federal Reserve Bank of New York (http://www.ny.frb.org/) The United States Federal Reserve Bank in New York City is only a few blocks from the World Trade Center. It has a gold vault 100 feet beneath the street. That depository is the largest in the world – even larger than the legendary Fort Knox gold reserves in the mid-1980s. The gold is owned by foreign nations, including Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. Its value is estimated at $25 billion. [1] (http://www.cnsnews.com/ViewBusiness.asp?Page=Businessarchive200109BUS20010912b)
