Madison Square Garden
About Madison Square Garden
Madison Square Garden, colloquially known as the Garden or by its initials MSG, is a multi-purpose indoor arena in New York City. It is located in Midtown Manhattan between Seventh and Eighth avenues from 31st to 33rd streets above Pennsylvania Station. It is the fourth venue to bear the name "Madison Square Garden"; the first two, opened in 1879 and 1890, were located on Madison Square, on East 26th Street and Madison Avenue, with the third Madison Square Garden (1925) farther uptown at Eighth Avenue and 50th Street.

It turns out that Madison Square Garden has been rebuilt a few times. Emmeline Pankhurst actually played the second iteration of the Madison Square Garden, which had a capacity of 8,000 people. She still was kind of suffering in the sales department — she only sold 3,000.
