The Rialto Theatre was a movie palace in New York City located at 1481 Broadway, at the northwest corner of Seventh Avenue and 42nd Street, within the Theater District of Manhattan.

The 1,960-seat theater, designed by Rosario Candela, opened on April 21, 1916, on the former site of Oscar Hammerstein's Vaudeville venue the Victoria Theatre.

[1] It exclusively played Triangle Film Corporation films[1] but beginning in 1919, the Rialto Theatre premiered many releases by Paramount Pictures (then known as the Famous Players–Lasky Corporation) until being supplanted by the newly built Paramount Theatre in 1926 as the movie studio's flagship theater in New York City.

It was once home to daytime talk shows hosted by Geraldo Rivera and Montel Williams, and was the production center of WOR-TV.

[3] Box office receipts from the premiere at the Rialto Theatre of Paramount Pictures's 1926 movie Old Ironsides (film), directed by James Cruz went to the USS Constitution restoration fund.
