Times Square is not really favored by the NYC locals. They try to stay away as much as possible. I can understand, as I hate when it is so crowded, you are at a standstill. But at night, it is a bit less crowded, because the day tourists are gone, and it is really neat with all the lights going on. This is the Crown Plaza Times Square Hotel, right next to the Hershey Store, where I have stayed a few times. It is a great hotel, and you can get out of Times Square fast, if you wish, and away from the crowds with the location.
all the Broadway posters look really cool at night
The Forever 21 shop is huge and has lots of affordable clothes and accessories and even a men's section
One of my favorite newspapers is the NY Times
The poster all the way to the left is Tyne Daly, which is pretty amazing.....she is made up really well
There is always something going on in Times Square any time of the day....the stores are open until midnight
Even Santa made a visit to Times Square !!
The Swatch store is a favorite of mine
If you pop in the M and M's store, you may see my girlfriend, Green, in all her glory!!!

Nice shot's of Times Square at night. Love them
Your images portray the excitement and energy that is uniquely NYC...and make me want to schedule a return visit. Thanks!
When we go visit my daughter and bring a NYC newbie she will tolerate a couple hours in Times Square...other than that we avoid...I do like it tho! Great photos!
You are lucky you were there between mob scenes.. the daytime tourists and then theatre goers AND tourists
Personally as a lifelong native New Yorker I dont like that 'they' turned Times Square into .. however I do love all the photos you got and now think I might need to brave it and get some night shots of my own
Thank you all so much for the kind words. It humbles me when I see so many enjoying what I enjoy each time I visit the city. A really magical place.
Daryl: It is so better at night as a bit less crowded. I hate when it is so crowded u cannot move, not fun at all. But I think worth it, even if just for a piece of Junior's cheesecake!!
