Walk through the sound of Times Square as the year changes from 2020 to 2021. For the first time since its official inception in 1907, the traditional ball drop celebration was closed to the public. What do you hear, see and feel in this unprecedented space and time?

The recording starts at 7th Avenue and 57th Street, walking southwards. Fun quiz: How many different languages can you detect?
