If the theater building is still around, it’s an Indian restaurant.

There is a photo of the Doll along with this survey of Times Square food joints in the sleazy days. I think I ate at a few of those:

This is a photo from yelp.com. I was in Times Square a few months ago, and I’m reasonably certain that the deli is still at 719 Seventh Avenue.

This is a photo I took off of Google maps. It’s possible that the building is still being used as a church, but at the time this picture was taken the building looked closed and in poor shape:

VIP is a child care center. If the auditorium is a day care center, and the lobby and foyer are retail, do you have to list both as functions?

The chinese restaurant with the yellow marquee is 95-04, so Adco Supplies adjacent would be 95-06:

I don’t know, Ed. They work for me, so it’s hard to figure out what the problem is.

kencmcintyre commented about Loew's Ritz Theatre on Jul 9, 2008 at 5:34 pm

The entire 200 block of 5th Avenue, on the odd side, has been bulldozed for construction. This theater is no more.

This 1915 photo lists the address as 119 Federal. There may have been a name change somewhere along the way:

There’s an older building at 135. It would depend on whether the 133 address is correct.

This article puts Bernstein-on-Essex at 135 Essex.
