.................................   A look up Park Avenue at Lexington Street ( 2004 ) offered a good view of the New Theatre. While the main entrance was located on Lexington Street for years, it had since been converted to a store and was impossible to spot. The entrance was moved to Park Avenue years ago, and continued to show movies into the 1980's. The theatre was a clothing store, and was just torn down.

At one time, the area surrounding the New Theatre had several movie theaters. To the East was Keith's, the Century/Valencia,  ; to the West , the Town, Hippodrome, and around the corner, was the Howard , while a couple of blocks north were the Stanley, Mayfair and Maryland. Movies haven't been shown in the area for years, and most of the old theater buildings have been torn down or razed, but the New Theatre building, while no longer showing movies, stood until 2010.

.................. Part of the Lexington Mall, this part of the block was torn down in May 2010 , nothing remains.	Looking south on Park Avenue at the castle facade of the New. Since razed.
The Entrance was moved over to Park Avenue in the 1970's, where it was until it was torn down in 2010.	.................. ..........................
