English: The Century Theatre (known as the New Theatre when it opened in 1909) was located on Central Park West in New York City. It was envisioned in 1906 by Heinrich Conried, a director of the Metropolitan Opera, and designed by the NYC firm Carrère and Hastings in a Neoclassical Beaux-Arts style. The intention was to establish in New York City a great theatre free of commercialism, resembling the Comédie Française of Paris. The new company performed dramas, but the Metropolitan Opera also performed operas there during the first season. It was renamed Century Theatre in 1911 and demolished in 1931.
