Summary
[edit]DescriptionRialto fashion (149192674).jpg |
The Rialto was opened in May 1917 by showman JM Quinn, who had also run the opulent Superba Theatre on Broadway's 500 block, where the Roxie now stands. He proposed to grow vegetables on the roof of the Rialto and other downtown office buildings as part of a 'home gardens' movement. The auditorium featured plaster ornament, colourful stenciling, organ screens supported by harpies, and a glaring mythological beast with red eyes staring down from the proscenium arch. Sid Grauman took over the lease in 1919 and remodelled the theatre, ditching the Greek revival facade. The auditorium is now derelict - there is a pet shop and a clothes shop in the foyer - but the marquee, Broadway's longest, is protected by a preservation order. |
