Disorder in Times Square (4)

I believe the answer is:

mess

'disorder' is the definition.
(mess is a kind of disorder)

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

(Other definitions for mess that I've seen before include "Confused situation" , "dog's dinner" , "Military dining area" , "Army canteen - shambles" , "Food-hall" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
