Utilizing the latest in Google technology with a pretty snazzy result.

Special thanks to extraordinary programmer and good friend Cary Shapiro who set it up. (Visit his site at https://monkeyhomes.com if you're looking to rent/list an apartment).

Yet another reason why I tell all my friends that this is the ultimate theatre website!

Thank you, Rob - you guys are the tops! (You're the Tower of Pisa!)

YUP the Marquis is on the Northwest corner of 45th and Broadway, directly across from the Minskoff

Wow, considering that I was born and raised in Manhattan and continue to get lost everywhere I go, this is awesome! Thanks, Rob.

Great feature. But Rob, hun, am I crazy or is the Music Box not listed yet?

Another feature recently added (a minor one) is the ability to send a link to an BWW article you're reading to a friend (there's a link at the top of the page)

Wonderful. Very helpful.

Now if only it could find the lost (or renamed) theatres of the past: the Alvin, the ANTA, the Morosco, the Helen Hayes (the old one), the Little Theatre...

And the Longacre (Virginia Woolf) is missing.

[Rob]

Posted: 5/10/05 at 1:14pm

Yesterday's 2 name changes are in place, the Longacre is indeed there, and the Music Box will show up when its next show goes into previews... Off-Broadway and some other venues coming....soon!

*snaps for Rob*

I enjoy the new features.

That is pretty cool there Rob!

Wonderful! Except for the glaring omission of the Majestic. I mean I LOVE the Phantom and I know he's there, but maybe others don't.

If he'd really like a challenge - how about one for Off-Broadway theatres? Some of those suckers are really hard to find.

Great effort

What would be really great is to add, with another color , the names & locations of all the legit theaters no longer with us. If people knew the amount of lost legit theaters they would be astounded.

It is a great effort however

Wow Rob thats awesome. I wish I could do stuff like that. Wow this is sad I know what theaters have what shows and what streets they are on. Wow kinda sad.

[Mr Roxy]

Posted: 5/10/05 at 9:46pm

I got it but than it froze up on me

[TxTwoStep]

Posted: 5/10/05 at 11:28pm

it worked this time and it's lovely. Can we get it installed in every NYC cab?!?!?

Posted: 5/10/05 at 11:55pm

The St. James is missing. Roger DeBris would not be happy.

[tkts]

Posted: 5/10/05 at 11:57pm

Scratch that. If you reload either the St. James or the Majestic comes up, not both.
