New York Coliseum. June 1963.The New York Coliseum was a convention center that stood on Columbus Circle in New York City from 1956 to 2000. It was designed by architects Leon and Lionel Levy a modified international style, and included both a low building with exhibition space and a 26-story office block.The Coliseum was built from 1954 to 1956 by the Triborough Bridge and Tunnel Authority under city planner Robert Moses, who, in rescuing a project that had long languished, condemned the area from West 58th to West 60th Streets on the west side of Columbus Circle. The complex was demolished in 2000 to make way for the Time Warner Center, originally dubbed the AOL Time Warner Center.
