Before the New York Knicks moved to Madison Square Garden, they played at the Old Madison Square Garden, which was located on 26th Street and Madison Avenue. This venue served as their home from the team's founding in 1946 until the opening of the current Madison Square Garden in 1968. The Old Garden hosted numerous events and was a significant part of New York's sports history before its demolition in 1968.
Before James Dolan, the New York Knicks were owned by the Madison Square Garden Company, which was led by his father, Charles Dolan. The Dolan family has been involved with the Knicks since the late 1990s, with James Dolan taking over as the team's executive chairman and CEO in 1999. Prior to the Dolans, the Knicks were owned by a group led by the late Ned Irish, who was a prominent figure in the team's early history.
Before James Dolan, the New York Rangers were owned by the Madison Square Garden Company, which was controlled by cable television magnate and philanthropist Cablevision founder Charles Dolan. The Dolan family had significant influence over the team and its operations prior to James Dolan taking a more prominent role in management. The Rangers were part of the broader Madison Square Garden sports and entertainment organization, which also included the New York Knicks.
There is no widely recognized boxer by the name of Herschel Albert Thornton who fought at Madison Square Garden before 1950. It is possible that there were lesser-known fighters or local matches, but no significant records or notable events featuring a boxer by that name are documented from that period.

I can't answer your question directly, but I do know that Stanford White, the architect famous for numerous New York landmarks, had designed the garden that actually occupied the roof of the original Madison Square building, and was where he was killed by a jealous former lover's spouse. A good place to start is to read up on Stanford White; one book of interest is, "The Architect of Desire : Beauty and Danger in the Stanford White Family", written by his great-great-granddaughter (??) Suzannah Lessard. OK...here it is (I guess) MSG was owned by the Madison Square Garden Inc., which was led by Irwin Felt (hence The Felt Fourm which is now The Theater at MSG). MSG was then taken over by Gulf + Western. Gulf + Western took over Paramount Pictures Corporation in 1966, then changed the name of the company to Paramount Communications in 1989. In 1994, Paramount was acquired by Viacom. ITT then got MSG from Viacom...then entered into a partnership with Cablevision. Sometimes you'd see under the words Madison Square Garden "An ITT-Cablevision Company". Cablevision then took full control. That's the best I can do with the answer. I do know that before Cablevision purchased the Garden and all of its properties, it was previously owned by Paramount and then previously by Gulf + Western. This period cover I believe the late-70's through the early 90's.

Ray Felix played for the New York Knicks during the 1953-54 NBA season. He was a center and had a brief career in the league, spending that season with the Knicks before moving on to play for other teams.
There happened to be 4 arenas named Madison Square Garden in NYC. The latest one is built at 33rd St and 7th Ave, while the one before it was built at 50th St and 8th Ave. The first two buildings were arenas that became best known for holding fighting matches located at Madison Square hence its name. Madison Square Garden was originally The Hippodrome, a sports facility built by P.T. Barnum in 1884. It received the name of Madison Square Garden after it was acquired by William Vanderbilt in 1879. He started to lose money on it though, and razed the structure in 1889. The Horse Show Association acquired the site and commissioned Stanford White to replace it with a grand Moorish structure with the same name. Costing $3 million, it was the second-tallest structure in New York city, and it had the largest auditorium in the United States, seating 8,000. Despite all this, the place still lost money. It was sold to a real estate company in 1911 that went bankrupt in 1916, when the New York Life Insurance company foreclosed. They leased it to Tex Rickard, who did make it a going concern, but who also decided to move the facility to 50th and 8th Avenue. That facility lasted until 1968, when it was closed for the current MSG, on 33rd & 8th Ave. (This one replace the old Penn Station.) Eventually, the 50th St. building was torn down to make way for the Worldwide Plaza (1989).
