The story

A historical landmark spot in Times Square, open around the clock. Insider tip: Guided tours are available every hour, starting at 10am.

The National Debt Clock is a display conceived by Seymour Durst to highlight the rising national debt and each family's share of it. The original version used 306 individual light bulbs, and the clock now stands on Anita's Way, a passage flanked by One Bryant Park and One Five One.
