Times Square/Broadway: Although Broadway runs the entire length of Manhattan, it is best known for its entertainment district, which extends from 40th to 53rd Streets, and between Avenue of the Americas and Eighth Avenue. Many of the 40+ theaters in the area were built between 1910 and 1930. Over the years, vaudeville, melodramas, comic operas, and dance were popular on Broadway. Today, most of the theaters present musicals, many of which run for several years. Times Square, which is referred to as the “Crossroads of the World,” marks the center of this concentration of well-known theaters, cinemas, and great shopping.

Central Park: Central Park was the first landscaped public park in the nation. Designers Frank Olmstead and Calvert Vaux transformed what was once a swamp into 843 acres of lakes, nature walks, and recreation areas, stretching from 59th Street to 110th Street, and from Fifth Avenue to Central Park West. Today, over 15 million people visit the park every year to join New Yorkers in escaping the hectic pace of the city.
