During the 1929 Wall Street Crash, what was the name of the exchange whose trading floor became the crisis's main symbol?

The New York Stock Exchange was the exchange whose trading floor became the main symbol of the 1929 Wall Street Crash.

The exchange, located on Wall Street in New York City, was the leading U.S. venue for listed-company shares. In late October 1929, enormous sell orders overwhelmed the market, producing record trading volumes and scenes of confusion outside the exchange.

The crash is usually described as a Wall Street event, but its economic effects spread far beyond New York. Falling share prices reduced household wealth, weakened banks and businesses, and contributed to a broad international downturn. The market’s collapse was one part of the conditions associated with the Great Depression.

The New York Stock Exchange is not the same as the Dow Jones Industrial Average. The NYSE is a stock exchange, while the Dow is a price-weighted index tracking a selected group of companies. Both are frequently mentioned in accounts of the crash, but they are different things.
