Louis N. Jaffe Art Theatre, now Village East by Angelika
... that the developer of the Louis N. Jaffe Art Theatre wanted it to be a "permanent monument" for the contributions of Jewish immigrants to the US? Source:
Yiddish Art Theatre (PDF) (Report). New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission. February 9, 1993. p. 12. Jaffe's quote was that Stuyvesant had "declared that 'the Jews should not be permitted to infest this country'. I thought a Jewish theatre on this very place would be a permanent monument to prove that the Jewish immigrant to this country is a useful citizen and makes a definite contribution to the country. I have answered Peter Stuyvesant 300 years too late, but my answer is none the less conclusive."
ALT1: ... that though the Louis N. Jaffe Art Theatre was built for the
Yiddish Art Theatre, the theatrical company moved out after two years? Source: Multiple in article, e.g. Landmarks Preservation Commission pp. 6-7.
ALT2: ... that the Yiddish Art Theatre was built and named for a theatrical company that moved out after two years? Source: See above.
ALT4: ... that Village East by Angelika is the only remaining Yiddish theater building in what was once the center of New York City's
Yiddish Theatre District? Source: Nahshon, Edna (2016). New York’s Yiddish Theater: From the Bowery to Broadway. Columbia University Press. p. 23.
ALT5: ... that Village East by Angelika, built specifically for Yiddish theater, later became the only burlesque theater in
Manhattan? Source: Landmarks Preservation Commission p. 9.

Article has been 5x expanded. No issues of copyvio or plagiarism. QPQ is done. All sources appear reliable. Hooks are interesting and sourced. I personally like the primary hook as well as ALT4 and ALT5. Looks ready to go!

Collapse former names in infobox?
First of all, congrats on the GA! What a beautiful article. I wonder if we should collapse the former names in the infobox, since the list is quite long? ---

@
Another Believer, thanks, I appreciate it. Sorry, I didn't see this until now. Collapsing the former names in the infobox sounds like a good idea to me. –
