Times Square Theatre

Converted to movie theatre in 1933. Notable productions include Strike up the Band (1930), Private Lives (1931). As of this writing, the Times Square is the last of the 42nd Street theatres that still needs redevelopment. The theatre supposedly got tied up in the bankruptcy of the Livent production company and plans for an Ecko Unlimited store that would preserve much of the theatrical interior fell through in 2007. Other curious plans followed.
