City Walks Federal Reserve Banks, 7.0 miles

The Federal Reserve Bank has been in the news a lot lately: with charge over the money supply, interest rates, and cash distribution, as well as communication with the working parts of the economy in the community the Fed has a lot to do with keeping us all gainfully employed. The Fed has grown with the city and has occupied three special-built structures since the 1920s. Today's walk will see them all. Side note: the cash vault in the new Fed is the second largest in the country. Hike Safety: Hiking is supposed to be fun. If you don't feel well or can't keep up, tell someone right away. Stop walking so it doesn't become something serious. Contact the hike leader. We can help get you off the trail. Alan: 713-863-8038 What to You Need: Supportive sports shoes, water, snacks and a hat.
