This RKO Theatre at 2248 Broadway, SE corner of 81st Street was acquired in 1953 by CBS-TV as their first color studio. Later became Reeves TeleTape, home to “Sesame Street”. Lobby is now entrance to high-rise apartments built above former auditorium. Retail stores are on street level and second floor.

Also known as Loew’s Paradise. This Grand Concourse movie palace still stands. Plans to restore are in limbo. The organ console is now at the fully-restored Loew’s Jersey on Journal Square in Jersey City, NJ.
