Watching a video of the 2000 New Year's Eve ball drop in the Times Square Visitor Center in the beautifully restored Embassy Theatre, at 1560 Broadway between 46th and 47th Street.  We highly recommend this as a first stop for any visitor to Times Square. The Embassy was the first-ever newsreel theatre in the United States.

The Times Square Visitor Center has everything you need to enjoy your visit! You can get info from tourism counselors, purchase theatre tickets from the Broadway Ticket Center, use a Fleet Bank ATM, but MTA public transit cards, access the Internet via six Yahoo! stations, purchase tour tickets and much more!

Views of the many HUGE billboards surrounding Times Square and another ticket office in the middle of the median.  With a ticket office everywhere you turn, it is amazing you do not end up sitting in someone's lap for the shows.

The multmedia 'buildings' next to the ABC studios are something to behold.  You could spend a day just watching all of the action on these 'larger than life' TV screens.

MTV Total Request Live tapes another show.  We tried to get on camera but we either looked too much like tourists, or did not look strange enough.
