Ever is a long time, and no one can intelligently prognosticate beyond the foreseeable. It is certainly conceivable that a theatre could be added, but the equilibrium at present seems pretty good, such that it would likely involve the hare-brained scheme of an outsider. The issue is cost, not zoning. For different reasons, none of the built options you mention are likely. The Liberty has configuration issues (I can't remember what exactly), the Times Square is just n/a from the church standpoint and the little shubert, which is actually just 1 seat shy of Broadway size, is just too small to be viable-we already have plenty of hard to rent small venues.
