Palace Theatre Mezzanine Obstructed View

Hi All,

Has anyone sat on the aisle at the Palace Theatre in the front mezzanine since the renovation? Looking into tickets online and it lists the first two seats off the side aisle as Obstructed View due to a railing. I don’t think this should be a huge problem from what I can find, but wondered if anyone has an insight or a pic from their seat. Thanks

I haven't been to the Palace post-renovation but this might help you: https://seatplan.com/new-york/palace-theatre/seating-plan/#s189472

It does show Left Mezzanine Row AA Seat 1, so there's a view front row, first seat on the aisle. (This is the only view I could find on this site or View From My Seat that exactly matches your description.) There is clearly a protruding bar in the line of sight. Interestingly, the Telecharge seat map says "This seat is full view, but has slightly less legroom," while the Broadway Direct seat map says "Obstructed View: there is a railing that may obstruct part of the stage." Quite a difference!

Thank you so much! I think that’s the general railing that blocks the front row of the mezzanine. Even beyond that, the first few seats of the side aisles have a rail directly next to them (marked as obstructed), so I’m curious to see what that looks like as well.
