Midtown West

A big part of Midtown West is enthralling, noisy and showy. With attractions meant to entertain the legions of tourists. If you are looking for a City that never sleeps, then this area is a must.

The center of Midtown West is Times Square, where the constantly flashing neon lights (some many stories high) are the beating heart of Manhattan. The area is certainly always alive with activity. If you have never seen Time Square, plan you first visit for dark. Start walking from 57^th Street and Broadway to the south. The spectacle will open out before your eyes, slowly at first, and then with a rush of energy and animation.

Midtown West is home to an very influential theater district. The Paramount, the New Amsterdam and the Belasco are some of the many theaters of Midtown, where the most impressive concentration of live theater in the world is offered.

South of Times Square you can find the bustling, business oriented Garment District home to Madison Square Garden (basketball), and Macy’s department store, they bill themselves as ¨the grandest department store in the world¨.
