Times Square, New York, NY Note: Created using New Year's Day items, confetti and other litter found in Times Square before sanitation crews cleaned it up after the night of celebrations. The colorful confetti was released from rooftops of the skyscrapers in and around Times Square when the ball dropped, the clock struck midnight and fire works were unleashed. This confetti initially covered the streets in and around Times Square and even blew into Central Park located approximately 20 blocks north of Times Square. The confetti looked especially vibrant in the early morning sunlight.

Note 1: With One World Observatory opening on May 29, 2015, the Freedom Tower at 1776 feet tall with 104 floors is the tallest building in the western hemisphere. It replaced the Twin Towers that were destroyed in a terrorist attack on September 11, 2001. Construction began April 27, 2006.

Unlike 2008 when a rogue construction worker buried a Boston Red Sox (David Ortiz) jersey under concrete in the new Yankee Stadium when it was being built that required 2 1/2 feet of concrete to be broken so the jersey could be removed, someone scrawled on one of Freedom Tower's beams "Yankees 1." Even thought the Mets also play here in NY, the Yankees will always be New York's team and apparently enshrined in Freedom Tower. I did not notice this until today when I was going through my photos, otherwise I would have taken a separate shot of this beam. Still for trivia and folklore, I've included the photo I did take on September 18, 2010 of the east side of Freedom Tower in its early construction phase:
