Chaos seen in Times Square (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mess

'chaos' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'in times square' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates a hidden word.
'MESS' is hidden in the letters of 'times square'.

'seen' is the link.

(Other definitions for mess that I've seen before include "State of disorder" , "Where sailors eat" , "Communal dining room" , "dirty and unpleasant" , "Service dining-area" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
