One way to tell someone hasn\u2019t spent much time in New York City is when they ask a Big Apple resident, \u201cDo you go to Times Square on New Year’s Eve?\u201d<\/p>\n

New Yorkers have long avoided Times Square, on New Year\u2019s Eve and the other 364 days of the year. First when it was a seedy, crime-filled swath of town where strip clubs hugged up against sex shops and drug dealers lingered on corners in the 1970s and \u201880s. And since the late 1990s due to the Disney-iffication of the area, where there\u2019s now, well, a Disney store next to Hershey\u2019s Chocolate World, next to some other multi-national chain shop.<\/p>\n
