Times Square NYC Pt 1

One of the most impressive places in NYC is Times Square! The bright lights and crowded streets add to the 'magic' of the location. One of the facts that I heard while I was there impressed me as well: the owners of the stores and restaurants in the area designated as "Times Square" are mandated that a certain percentage of of the facades and open wall spaces need to be covered with lit up signs, screens and neon. This is all to preserve the "magic".
