Description
Hi everyone, welcome to 1 Times Square !!!

I have always wanted to make assets for times square, cuz its such a unique place in the world. I started off by making this 1 Times Square building, as its the most iconic one among them. This is a super detailed asset, and I hope you like it.


This asset include:
-Crystal ball at the top of the structure
-Detailed exterior structure
-Updated for the 2019 version of the building

The NYPD building could be found here:

History of the building:
One Times Square, also known as 1475 Broadway, the New York Times Building, the New York Times Tower, or simply as the Times Tower, is a 25-story, 363-foot-high (111 m) skyscraper, designed by Cyrus L. W. Eidlitz, located at 42nd Street and Broadway in New York City.

The tower was originally built to serve as the headquarters of The New York Times, which officially moved into the tower in January 1904. Eight years later, the paper moved to a new building, 229 West 43rd Street. Even after the Times left, One Times Square remained a major focal point of Times Square due to its annual New Year's Eve "ball drop" festivities, and the introduction of a news ticker at street-level, in 1928, by The New York Times.

Following its sale to Lehman Brothers in 1995, One Times Square was re-purposed with advertising billboards on its facade to take advantage of its prime location within the square. Due to the large amount of revenue generated by its signage, One Times Square is considered one of the most valuable advertising locations in the world.

Most of the building's interior remains vacant, aside from a Walgreens pharmacy which occupies its lower levels. In 2017, as part of One Times Square's redevelopment, plans were announced to construct a new Times Square museum, observation deck, and a new entrance to the Times Square–42nd Street subway station. Construction on the new subway entrance began in 2019.

@Blackaroni & Chee$e I'm currently doing 5 times square plus the sephora shop but times square tower would be a little harder to do but will consider it

@icarloapellido yeah I would definitely conisder it since it has a pretty cool subway entrance
@tonycoolbek yeah i'm sorry cuz im currently focused on times square

@Lanadelrey01993 yeah that plaza could be quite easily done. It's just the side that faces times square is much harder to do.
@WTC1973 yeah i thought of the w hotel, but it's the same with many ts buildings that the side that faces times square is pretty complicated as it has lots of billboards
