Times Square’s brilliant bright lights can be seen all the way from the International Space Station, which might be too much for some dogs, especially those more used to the glow of a TV screen than a 125,000-square-foot screen like the one at 1535 Broadway.

Make a break for nearby North Chelsea Dog Park, where you can let your dog run free with local pups. Then, enjoy brunch together on the pet-friendly patio at Barking Dog Hell’s Kitchen.

Visitors at this time of year should remember to pack Fido’s favorite overcoat and be prepared for the cold. If you want a slower pace and fewer crowds, visit Times Square in the early morning before commuters flock to work or late evening when most businesses have closed for the day.
