Location
The address is 6 Times Square, New York, NY 10036, United States.
Our data records the borough as Manhattan without a confirmed neighborhood, so we do not name one.
In a straight line it is about 0.2 miles from Times Square, 0.5 miles from the Empire State Building, 0.5 miles from Madison Square Garden.
Those are straight-line distances between coordinates, not walking routes, so treat them as a way to compare properties rather than as a travel time.
