The Roxy was a massive, ornate movie theater built in 1927 near Times Square in New York. The Art Deco-style theater was similar in design and opulence to Radio City Music Hall, which was built shortly after the Roxy. Its programming included live shows and concerts. It was closed and  tragically demolished in 1960, but its design and splendor is preserved in the beautiful photography of Samuel Gottscho.
