Just wear, like, six pairs of socks, because your feet are going to get frostbite from standing on freezing cold concrete for, like, 8 hours, and you ll do just fine!
Go there several hours before just to get a few blocks away, but you may not get close to Times Sq. with hundreds of thousands also trying to be in that spot.
