Where was William theatre the globe located?

The Globe Theatre was a theatre in London associated with William Shakespeare. It was built in 1599 by Shakespeare's playing company, the Lord Chamberlain's Men, on the south bank of the River Thames, at a site previously occupied by the Beargarden, an arena for bear-baiting. The Globe was destroyed by fire on 29 June 1613, but was rebuilt in 1614 and remained in use until 1642, when it was closed by the Puritans.
