Times Square Photo Gallery

Times Square
Shuffling down Broadway through the crush of tourists gaping into TV studios and craning their necks to the latest billboard, its hard to remember that this tiny enclave was once littered with erotic shops and had the highest crime rate in New York City. While Times Square has changed drastically in the past decade, ever since its inception a reputation for the flashy and spectacular prevailed for the area. By the late 90’s Times Square was a symbol again for the urban jungle of Manhattan; The NASDAQ sign is one flashier example, costing over $37 million to build, at 37 feet high it is the largest LED sign in the world.
