Central Park is on top and Times Square at the bottom, showing two Times Buildings: the one at the junction of Broadway and Seventh Avenue (on the right) and the Times Building at 229 West 43rd Street, a New York City landmark.

The Seventh Avenue is interrupted by Central Park from West 59th Street (Central Park South) to West 110th Street (Central Park North), where the avenue is called Adam Clayton Powell Jr. Boulevard, since 1974.
