Sa “Yes indeed Happy new year. This is a great opportunity to
teach you about Time Square.”
Mo “Noooo, this is a time for relaxing not learning.”
Sa “Learning can be relaxing. You kick back and I will talk.”
Sa “Let me start by saying it was not always called Time
Square. In the early days it was called Longacre Square. Then in 1904 a human
named Albert Ochs a publisher of the New York Times moved the headquarters to
that area.”
Mo “Oh so that is why it changed the name.”
Sa “Thought you were going to just sit and relax.”
Sa “Well in 1907 the New York Times held a New Year's Eve
event to celebrate their relocation to
Longacre Square. Their building was then the second tallest in Manhattan and became the symbol for a new, vibrant era. With that the nickname Time Square came about and has remained. In addition, every year since this first celebration, millions of people have gathered for the well-known and much anticipated ball drop ceremony. I could talk about all of that but since you want to relax we will save that for another time.”
