Used to be NYC's Red Light District
Review of Times Square, New York by Skyth

Advantages: can get cheap Tickets to most Broadway shows
Disadvantages: overcrowded; drowning in advertisements; upsettingly expensive restaurants and stores

Good ole Times Square. I don't know the exact dimensions of this entire area, but I would say it covers midtown beginning from 39th street going all the way to 60th. From the east to the west, it stretches from 5th avenue all the way to 9th. At one point in its history, it was the best hang out place in NYC. And then, it fell from society's moral expectations. During the 80's and early 90's, the square became Manhattan's red light district. The ... Read review

The World's Crossroads
Review of Times Square, New York by Ooky

Advantages: Bright lights, great atmosphere, great shops!
Disadvantages: A little crowded around the holidays (but thats expected)

...do you start when describing Times Square? There are so many things to say, so I must try to organise my thoughts. I apologise in advance if I jump around, but I get excited when talking about New York in general. I have been to New York twice, once last year and then again for New Year's Eve this year. Let me tell you, what a difference! Because of the unfortunate events in September of 2001, Times Square was near enough empty when I visited in ... Read review

Amazing Is The Only Word
Review of Times Square, New York by MelNorthernLine

Advantages: Amazing atmosphere, & plenty of major shops.
Disadvantages: None I can think of!

...is exactly how I found Times Square! There was so much life there, and it's such a great atmosphere! The biggest Virgin Megastore is situated here, and it's a must to visit for any music fan. It has everything you could possible think of! Theres alot of places to eat around here, including the 24 hour McDonalds. You'll never go hungry there! If your looking for tickets for Broadway shows, the TKTS booth (just underneath the famous Coca-Cola sign) ... Read review

Times Square - Not the Best of NYC !
Review of Times Square, New York by AndrePaul

Advantages: Been There Done That
Disadvantages: Tourism and Over Crowding

...is why tourists head to Times Square, like moths heading to light! Times Square is a busy, stressful and fairly dull place to 'hang-out' while in the city. Although it does attract a few great landmarks and can be a fun photo opportunity - it is nothing to get overly excited about. Area's such as the Lower east side and Soho are now attracting many more tourists due to the regeneration and introduction of many new stylish bars, shops and restaurants. ... Read review

Bright Lights and places to visit
Review of Times Square, New York by DeniseKelly40

Advantages: Great photo stop and buzzing atmosphere
Disadvantages: lots of crowds

...time. Even at night time Times Square was still very active and loads going on. There is plenty to do and its suitable for all ages. There was alot of crowds even for march time,but that was expected. I would advise people with children to watch out as a child could be easily lost. There was alot of restaurants and shops about. We went to Hard Rock cafe and thought it was well worth the money the food was lovely. Also there was the M&M shop ... Read review
