Love the NY scenes. Often stayed at the Taft and neighboring Abbey Victoria and Wellington hotels. Tavern On The Green brings back memories of visits there with various touring artists and a memorable opening night affair for BIG RIVER. Thanks for posting these, Chic and Buckles.

Opened in 1926 as the Manger Hotel
Built simultaneously with the Roxy
which had it's lobby entrance going
through the hotel from the corner
when it opened in early 1927
It became the Taft in 1931
This corner of the building at 50th
St & 7th Ave shows Cobbs Cafeteria
whenever this photo was taken (most
likely in the 70s) was where the
Marquee & main entrance to the Roxy
lobby was & is now the site of a
tremendous TGI Friday's
