History of Times Square New York
New York Times building officially
opened on New Year's York's socio-economic within no time.
But by
the mid 20's Times Square became a hot bed of sleaze and disrepute.
The Depression of 1929 was a major set back, which resulted in sharp
decline in theater attendances and performance halls started showing
sexually explicit films.
The 70s brought some respite with some really successful Broadway
shows that kept Times Square alive but it was still considered an
area of New York 'not suitable for the family'. It was the 1980s
that transformed Times Square from its sleazy seedy image to New
York's star attraction and New Year hot spot. Disney entered Times
Square, opened Disney Store and touched every aspect of it, from
Disney's Broadway shows to cleaning up the streets, Times Square
came alive with refreshing ideas for entertainment and fun.
Times Square is now America's gathering place to celebrate the arrival
of a New Year with pageantry and celebrations. Now Times Square
is one of New York's must-see spot.
