    Long Acre (also #Longacre) Square was taken from #London's district for buying #horses & #carriages. Basically, the area was a huge #UsedCar market, before there were #cars. The #WinterGarden #Theatre (1911) was an #arena to watch your horse (1881)!
    City changes name 1904 bc #NYTimes is #building a #tower on the site. #Electricity & #StreetLights help make area safer, #NYC's first #subway opens 1904, #newspaper moves in 1905.
    #TimesSquare not #Time #Square
