One Times Square

One Times Square rises as a narrow, triangular tower wrapped in massive, glowing advertising billboards that define its silhouette against the city sky. Completed in nineteen oh four, the building originally served as the headquarters for The New York Times, which moved into the twenty-five-story structure at the intersection of Broadway and Seventh Avenue. The newspaper’s proprietor, Adolph Ochs, successfully lobbied the city to rename the surrounding Longacre Square after his publication, permanently embedding the name Times Square into the city map.
