Is Times Square Your Favorite Place?

When you visit New York, spend 15 to 30 minutes in Times Square. Don't think that Times Square is New York, because it's not,. That's the point. I feel like even as New York became safer in the 2000s, the aughts, the 2010s, more and more chains moved in. It's kind of sad. Just see those chains, you know? You're just paying a lot of money for a burger you could get in Wisconsin. Check out other boroughs. There's Hoboken or Jersey City where you can go and cross the whole island of Manhattan.
