Happy New Year's Eve!
All about New Year's Eve in Times Square though some politicians think it's a bad idea. But don't fret: Here are some New Year's Eve suggestions from our Events page.
The Times looks at the cost of various New Year's Eve revelry supplies (party hat by Tiffany, in sterling silver, $225; party hat, from Duane Reade, in paper, $1.08) and how homicides have surged at the end of the year.
