I'm guessing it's pretty much been gutted now, but they left the sign.

When I win the lottery I'm going to produce a full, first rate revival of Follies at the Liberty...

Frankly, you'll only be able to do it if you beat my production of Godspell first.

There was an interesting interactive feature in today's NYTimes: http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2010/12/03/nyregion/42nd-street-then-now.html?ref=nyregion

It's a side-by-side comparison of 42nd St in 2010 and 1989.

I saw End of the Rainbow last night in the beautiful Belasco theater and after the show I spent some time looking into the windows of the Hudson Theater(located on the same block). It reminded me of this thread and led me to spend my day re-reading this great thread and googling my day away searching about the Helen Hayes and Morosco theaters. I found some interesting things about the rally's to Save The Theaters, thought I'd pass it on. I had never seen Lee Harris Pomeroy's design to incorporate the theaters into the hotels design. Can you imagine if the Marquis looked like this!
