New JPMorgan Chase HQ Drives Billions in Economic Growth for New York

Our commitment to NYC goes beyond our new headquarters.

Once completed in 2025, the 60-story skyscraper will be New York City’s largest all-electric tower and represent the firm’s continued commitment to the city. Over the course of its construction, the project will create more than 8,000 new construction jobs and drive additional economic activity of $2.6 billion for the city, as well as $3.6 billion across all of New York State.

An independent study by Deloitte found that JPMorgan Chase’s employees and operations contribute $29.8 billion in annual economic activity to New York City, stimulating an additional 40,000 jobs across local industries. The firm’s activities also contribute a total of $39.8 billion annually to New York State’s economy, stimulating an additional 61,000 jobs overall.

Keeping New York City Moving

J.P. Morgan helped the MTA install a contactless payment system for public transit riders. Now, people can simply tap their payment card or use an app they already have—no more waiting in line to buy or load a fare card. It’s helped to make the MTA experience far more efficient.

Our Longstanding Commitment to NYC


The Manhattan Company is founded (1799)

The Manhattan Company, JPMorgan Chase's earliest predecessor institution, is chartered by the New York State legislature to supply "pure and wholesome" drinking water to the city's growing population.  Among its founders are Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr.

A provision in the charter allows The Manhattan Company to use its surplus capital for banking operations.  Within five months, The Bank of The Manhattan Company opens for business, becoming the second commercial bank in New York City after Hamilton’s Bank of New York.  With his banking monopoly broken, Hamilton severs his association with the water company.

 


 

Putting Community First (1807)

The Manhattan Company grants New York City’s volunteer fire companies free access to its network of water pipes to fight fires, contributing to the community’s public safety.

Rising on Wall Street (1914)

Construction begins in 1913 on a new J.P. Morgan & Co. headquarters at the firm’s historic site at 23 Wall Street.
