Times Square

Times Square is a major commercial intersection, tourist destination, entertainment center, and neighborhood in the Midtown Manhattan section of New York City. It is one of the world's most visited tourist attractions, drawing an estimated 50 million visitors annually.

History

Times Square was originally known as Longacre Square until 1904 when it was renamed after the New York Times moved its headquarters to the newly erected Times Building. The area has since become a symbol of New York City and the United States.
