"A Hub of the Westside"
Columbus Circle is a sight to see, for certain. It acts as the midpoint between Times Square and the Lincoln Center, and stands up as a destination for tourism in its own right. The shopping in the vicinity of the place is great, which will give you a chance to admire the surrounding buildings, the nearby west side of the park, and midtown in general. As with many other great parts of the city, it changes with the seasons, in summer a bright reminder of NYC vitality, in winter a decked-out celebration of the holidays.

"Who knows what you may find?"
I’m not sure what Columbus was really looking for when he set off travelling but the Time Warner building in Columbus Circle would be beyond the dreams of most people, even in recent decades, let alone in the far and distant past. The curved front plays host to a shopping mall and traversing up the building affords a tremendous view of the local area but to be honest, the best view is from the outside looking up, such is the splendour of this building.

"Great place to shop and relax"
I love to go shopping at the Time Warner Center. Every time I go to NYC I always stop by this shopping center when I have to go to the bathroom and I'm hanging out in Central Park. I always shop and then lay out in the park afterwards. It's a great place to take pictures since the Time Warner Center is such a beautiful building.

"Historic view is at best"
Columbus Circle named after Christopher Columbus is a center of attraction in New York. It was the first major traffic circle of the United States. It has also been a major transportation hub for quite a long time. The twin towers of Time Warner corporation is located here. The Dakota Avenue is a famous stop of Columbus circle. No one would have ever wanted to miss the opportunity travassing this historic street. I would rather describe it as a celebrity street with such renowned places of importance existing across this street.
