About Theater District

The Theatre District is in the heart of Manhattan. Within its 17 blocks, the Theater District has undergone many transformations over the past century. The area was known as the home for history-making families such as the Astors and the Rockefellers. The Theatre District was officially named in the square, in 1903, as the original headquarters of the New York Times. It is home to the Broadway and is now a thriving business district.
