The Tower (1927), architect S. Charles Lee’s first theatre commission, is truly one”of”a”kind. Owner H.L.
Gumbiner required as many seats as possible, as well as commercial space along the Broadway and 8th
Street frontages, all on a long and narrow (50’) lot. An exceptional design, still regarded as one of Lee’s
finest, met the challenges and led to Lee’s next Broadway commission, Gumbiner’s Los Angeles Theatre
