One of the main attractions of Times Square New York. Seriously its hard to miss this. I mean the Hershey’s Times Square. Located at the opposite of M&M World Times Square, the building can be visibly seen from far.

Macy’s Herald Square, NYC: The Largest Departmental Store in the World
The moment when the yellow cab stopped in front Macy’s, the first impression was the lovely pre-war building located the Herald Square. It was a chilly spring morning and the store was well decorated with flowers and trees. It was nicely done, as passerby would stop and took pictures of the decorations.
