One Times Square is the name of the building in Times Square upon which the famous New Year's Times Square Ball drop is performed annually. It was originally designed by Cyrus L.W. Eidlitz and James C. Mackenzie, Jr. and built by the New York Times in 1904 as a headquarters for their operations. Upon completion, the 25 story, 395 ft (120 m) skyscraper was acknowledged as the second tallest building in the world.

Hurray For Hollywood

According to a BBC News article, the famous Hollywood sign has been saved from redevelopment. Now the hilltop where the icon "lives" will remain protected and in its natural state. A Chicago-based group had considered plans to develop the hilltop as an exclusive residential neighborhood.
