*************

Times Square is a major commercial intersection and a neighborhood in Midtown Manhattan, New York City, at the junction of Broadway (now converted into a pedestrian plaza) and Seventh Avenue and stretching from West 42nd to West 47th Streets. Times Square – iconified as ""The Crossroads of the World"",^{[1][2][3][4][5]} ""The Center of the Universe"",^[6][7][8] and the ""The Great White Way""^[9][10][11] – is the brightly illuminated hub of the Broadway Theater District,^[12] one of the world's busiest pedestrian intersections,^[13] and a major center of the world's entertainment industry.^[14] According to Travel + Leisure magazine's October 2011 survey, Times Square is the world's most visited tourist attraction, hosting over 39 million visitors annually.^[15] Approximately 300,000 people pass through Times Square daily.^[16]

Formerly Longacre Square, Times Square was renamed in April 1904 after The New York Times moved its headquarters to the newly erected Times Building – now called One Times Square – site of the annual ball drop on New Year's Eve.^[17]

The northern triangle of Times Square is technically Duffy Square, dedicated in 1937 to Chaplain Francis P. Duffy of New York City's ""Fighting 69th"" Infantry Regiment; a memorial to Duffy is located there, along with a statue of George M. Cohan, and the TKTS discount theater tickets booth. The stepped red roof of the TKTS booth also provides seating for various events. The Duffy Statue and the square were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.^[18]
