Facts about

The facade of the Harmonia Gardens still stands as of 2010 on the 20th Century Fox lot, though the park across the street is long gone.
The original Broadway production of "Hello Dolly!" opened at the St. James Theater on January 16, 1964 and ran for 2844 performances, setting a Broadway longevity record. "Hello Dolly!" also won the 1964 Tony Awards for the Best Musical and Best Score. The original Broadway production is the seventeenth longest running show ever.
The song "Love Is Only Love", which Barbra Streisand as Dolly sings in her bedroom before the Harmonia Gardens scene, was not in the stage production of "Hello, Dolly". "Love Is Only Love" was written by Jerry Herman for the Broadway musical "Mame" but cut before that show's opening. The song occurred in the story as Mame Dennis tries to explain falling in love to her pre-teen nephew Patrick.
