Times Square doesn’t have to be tourist trap

A new study says Times Square isn’t the tourist trap many imagine it to be. The study, commissioned by restaurant chain Dave & Buster’s, which plans to open a restaurant in Times Square April 5, found that more than half of the total population living within a half-mile of Times Square is single and almost three-quarters of these nearby residents have white-collar jobs. They would, the thinking goes, hang out more in Times Square if the retail there enticed them enough. more [Crain’s]
