Beethoven Hall (Boston)
Beethoven Hall (1874–78) was an auditorium in Boston, Massachusetts, that hosted musical performances and other entertainments in the 1870s.[1] It sat on Washington Street, near Boylston Street, in today's Boston Theater District/Chinatown neighborhood.[2] The architect was William Washburn,[3] who had also designed the first National Theatre and the second Tremont Temple.
In 1879 the renovated hall re-opened as the Park Theatre.[4] The building survived until 1990, when it was razed.[5]
