Today we took a stroll through the neighborhood, which is Times Square. Well, it was more a shop-hopping, including a tall coffee at Starbucks.
This area is more or less a giant advertisement garden. Most of them are nice to look at, though. People are looking up all the time, like in a art gallery.
Here's the first try to use the panoramic feature of my camera.
The wind blew through the streets between the skyscrapers, the sun was barely able to provide warmth. Think about buying a cap and gloves for the upcoming visit at the football stadium... 
And it was the day of the New York Marathon. We tried to get a glimpse but the course didn't reach Midtown Manhattan. The closest part of it was Central Park South so we went there.
We spent there to cheer for a friend but surrendered to the chilly wind after an hour.
Times Square at night is even more impressing than in daylight. I guess they have a dedicated nuclear power plant just for the lights and these large ad screens in the area..
And a picture of Broadway, where there is no difference in the crowd and traffic between night and day...at least in the theater district where we stay.
