UNITED PALACE HISTORY: The ornate United Palace opened in 1930 as the Loew's 175th Street Theatre, a deluxe movie theater and vaudeville house, the last of the five Wonder Theaters in New York City and New Jersey. Its first act as a movie theater ended in April 1969 with a screening of 2001: A Space Odyssey.

With a groundswell of community support and our good friend, patron, and neighbor Lin-Manuel Miranda, movies returned to the United Palace in 2013. Since then we have screened over 100 feature films, from world premieres (In the Heights and Halftime and as part of the Tribeca Festival) to all-time classics (Raiders of the Lost Ark), to community favorites (La Soga).    

Our goal is to have the cinematic experience come alive for audiences too used to watching movies on their phones or TVs.    

One of our highest compliments came from Robert DeNiro who, speaking before a 50th anniversary screening of The Godfather, described watching a movie at the United Palace as: “The moviegoing experience doesn't get any better.”
