the house and ring in the new year in New York City. 1. TIMES SQUARE BALL DROP Perhaps the most well-known New Year’s Eve tradition for tourists and even for native New Yorkers is the


Time’s Square Ball Drop. Located at the roof of One Times Square, the ball is a major part of many New Year’s Eve celebrations. As the crowd of thousands gathers to begin their celebrations,


the ball descends 141 feet in 60 seconds, down a  flagpole starting at 11:59 p.m. ET, and resting at midnight to signal the start of the new year. [RELATED: TOP 3 FUN WAYS TO RING IN THE
