This is Times Square in NYC, also referred to as the theatre district. A while back it was really all run down, full of prostitutes and XXX-rated movie houses, but the city invested money into renovating it and it's just spectacular now. Lots of brilliantly lit-up billboards, restaurants, souvenir shops, Broadway shows, and street performers...it is alive and kicking 'round the clock. One of the most exhilirating places I've been, especially on New Years Eve - it's jam packed with people and completely nucking futs!

Times Square is great, but come to think of it, everything is great in N.Y.

Massachusetts......hm. President Kennedy was born here. So was Conan O'Brien (had to get that in for Crystal)

Massachusetts was home to many famous things happening in colonial times (I.E. Revolutionary War, Paul Revere, etc)
