Thanks. I understand all of those points except what you wrote about a "real lobby." Didn't the old Palace have a long, wide entrance way that functioned as a real lobby?

More in the mold of the entrance to the Imperial or the 42nd Street entrance of the Lyric or New Amsterdam: because the house is actually on the other side of the block, there's a hallway connecting the street-side door to the theatre's actual interior. Like those others, it wasn't a "lobby" in the sense of it being a space you'd want to spend any time if you had another option. What the Palace is getting is lobby/lounge space that's both outside the house and inside the theatre's "building" and separate from entryways.
