Duffy Square
Appearance
Duffy Square is the northern triangle of Times Square. It is located between 45th and 47th Streets, Broadway and Seventh Avenue.
Duffy Square is a popular tourist destination. It is well known for housing TKTS, a destination point for those in search of reduced-price theater tickets.
Duffy Square was once dominated by a fifty-foot, eight-ton statue entitled Purity (Defeat of Slander) by Leo Lentelli in the early twentieth century. Now the square has two statues, one in the North of the square's namesake, Francis Patrick Duffy, and one in the south depicting composer, playwright, and actor George M. Cohan.
