Good afternoon, everyone - we would like to offer a Very Happy 90th Birthday to one of America's most iconic locations - Radio City Music Hall. Tuesday, December 27th, 1932, the curtain goes up for the very first time at 1260 6th Avenue (Avenue Of The Americas). These images were taken between late November through December 26th, 1932 - she is seen here as quiet as a tomb, untouched and ready for the big step off - not unlike a grand ship just before her launching. In some of the photos, you'll see workmen putting on the finishing touches or a stray piece of equipment ready to be picked up and removed. The final image was taken on opening night - today - 9 decades ago. I wanted to share these in contrast to the flurry of activity that RCMH is still known for to this day. Ironically, Radio City had a catastrophic opening night - the live performance program ran from 8pm to 2am, and acts had to be crammed and many patrons simply up and left. It was a public relations nightmare. A month later, after restructuring and a few sackings, things turned around. Moving pictures were added to the rotation and the epic, ground-breaking "King Kong" was to premiere there in March, 1933. Ever since, Radio City has become the benchmark location for movie premieres, and some of the most popular music and theatrical performances of all time. And the rest, as they say, is history. 🇺🇲🇺🇲 ** Please Like & Follow "Sandy Hook History" on Facebook & Instagram for more amazing maritime and military histories of the Garden State and New York Harbor as well as a review of the 80th Anniversary of the Battle Of The Atlantic and World War 2** 🇺🇲🇺🇲 Photos: Getty Images (all) #visitmonmouth #newjerseybuzz #thejournalnj #locallivingnj #journeythroughjersey #onlyinnewjersey #njspots #centraljerseyexists #discovernj #yesnj #newjerseyhistory #newjerseyforyou #sandyhookbeach #sandyhooknj #sandyhookhistory #forthancockhistory #forthancock #radiocitymusichall #rockefellercenternyc #rockefellercenter #newyorkcityhistory #nyhistory #nyhistoricalsociety #therockettes #performancearts #newyorkcitylandmarks #nationalregisterofhistoricplaces #1930movies #radiocity #avenueoftheamericas (at Radio City Music Hall) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cmrl0H_gshQ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
