New York, United States. 31st Dec, 2015. Heavily armed NYPD counterterrorism officers stand at post near the entrance to the restricted zone between 42nd and 43rd Streets. With a heightened degree of security due to the threat of a terrorist strike like those in Paris and San Bernadino, preparations for New York City's annual Times Square New Year's Eve celebration reflect the city's resolve to maintain public safety at such mass public gatherings.
