At
one time Times Square was the headquarters
of the Newspaper The New York Times,
and that’s how this open area
of city got its name. Centering on
42nd Street and Broadway, the street
consists of the blocks between Sixth
and Ninth Avenue from east to west
and 39th and 52nd Streets from south
to north. Time Square is located in
an area called Midtown Manhattan,
which is known for its busy attitude
and is also known to be one of the
nerve centers of New York City. Times
Square is used for many official ceremonies
and is a popular setting for books,
movies, music videos, and television
shows. Because of its relationship
to Broadway Street there are many
major theaters near Times Square.
