In the second week of June 2025, I visited the Google office in Chelsea Market, New York, and later that evening took a stroll to the famous Times Square.
Here are some interesting storefront photos that I could not resist capturing.
- This is the iconic I
NY insignia that is found everywhere from the airport to shopping bags. Here’s an entire store dedicated to buying merchandise and souvenirs on a New York trip.
Here’s the view of the entire storefront:
This is a fast food joint, and looking at the large models of the chips and fried chicken, it is clear what they sell.
The large glass panels reveal the vibes inside and the sitting arrangements.
The entrance appears to be accessible as well.
Here’s a storefront photo of the same place from a little farther away also revealing that a street food hut is placed right in front of it. Also, clearly shows the entrance that seems accessible.
This is a Disney official store that is loved by all.
The huge glass panels show the interiors and some of the merchandise on sale.
This storefront claims to be the biggest Sephora outlet in the US.
The revolving door seems to be accessible for a wheelchair since it is wide enough.
This is a corner view of a McDonald’s taken from across the street.
The colorful neon signs and hoardings above it are also a treat to the eyes.
This TACO Bell outlet shows the interiors all the way to the ordering counter, which is placed in a straight line after the main entrance.
This Rock Shop is adjacent to the ‘Hard Rock Cafe’, which is very famous in the US.
I also remember seeing one in Gurugram
This corner view of the Subway fast food joint shows interesting letters in color.
These most likely indicate the metro lines of the New York subway that are available from Penn Station, adjacent to it.
Here’s another New York gift store whose storefront completely reveals all the goodies and utility objects they sell to customers.
This store seems to be primarily selling luggage.
There are plenty of shops in Times Square that sell weed and tobacco products.
Here’s one of them.
Another MacD, a few blocks away.
The storefront shows the online ordering touch screen panels.
This pizza outlet appears to be closed for the day, but shows important information about its timings, phone number, and other information on its glass panels.
It also shows the seating arrangement inside the shop.
Finally, this Wendy’s outlet, that is also my favorite of all junk foods, invites people to order online and skip the lines - how cool is that…!
