Steinert Hall

Steinert Hall was a subterranean recital hall at 162 Boylston Street in Boston that held concerts four stories beneath the Piano Row District in Boston beginning in February 1897. Steinert Hall held 300 to 650 people, and audiences entered it from a staircase at 162 Boylston Street. Following the Cocoanut Grove nightclub fire in 1942, heightened fire codes caused the concert hall to close indefinitely. Largely abandoned, Steinert Hall remains in a state of disrepair beneath Boston's Piano Row, highly busy blocks facing Boston Common and the Theater District.
