Unlike Hammerstein’s first roof garden theatre, which crowned his failed Olympia Theatre, the Paradise Roof Garden was able to rise to prominence and contend with its rivals for the better parts of two decades.

From 1904 to 1914 it was run by Willie Hammerstein, who put on highly popular vaudeville acts.
