Make this print opens the generator on a 600 m square around the landmark. Buildings print at close to true scale, so the landmark grows with the print size.

  1. Hidden among towers

    The theater is a low building almost hidden by much taller neighbors in these renders. A larger print keeps its small details visible, and a layer height of 0.12-0.16 mm keeps the edges crisp.

  2. One piece with the ground

    The Hayes Theater is joined to the ground in the exported file, and the four-side check found no floating parts, so nothing needs gluing.

  3. Pick the detail for your nozzle

    In the Buildings settings, set Landmark detail to Print friendly to adapt thin parts and small details to the print scale. Full detail keeps every modeled feature, for larger prints or a finer nozzle.

  4. Colors

    Buildings, roads, water and ground arrive as separate filament slots in the 3MF. The Hayes Theater takes the building color.

  5. File format

    You get a 3MF for Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer or PrusaSlicer. Any of them can save it as STL if you need one.

About the Hayes Theater

On West 44th Street, number 240, in Midtown Manhattan's Theater District stands the Hayes Theater, a Broadway house named for actress Helen Hayes. With 597 seats on two levels, it is the smallest Broadway theater. It was built in 1912 for impresario Winthrop Ames to a neo-Georgian design by Ingalls & Hoffman. At first it had a single level and 299 seats, until Herbert J. Krapp added a balcony in 1920.

Red brick makes up most of the facade, trimmed in limestone, and the main entrance sits under an arch toward the eastern end of the ground floor. Inside, the auditorium has ornamental plasterwork with Adam-style elements, a sloped orchestra level, one balcony and a flat ceiling. New York City has designated the facade and parts of the interior as landmarks. The house has also been called New York Times Hall and Winthrop Ames Theatre, and before its current name it was the Little Theatre and the Helen Hayes Theatre.

Ames meant the Little Theatre for new plays, but it lost money, which led him to enlarge it within ten years. The New York Times bought it in 1931 and planned to raze it, yet plays went on until 1941, when it became a conference hall. It served as an ABC broadcasting studio in 1951 and as a Westinghouse studio from 1965. Helen Hayes became its namesake in 1983, and in 2015 Second Stage bought it, reopening it in 2018 under a shortened name.
