Chelsea Studios

Chelsea Studios is a television studio and sound stage at 221 West 26th Street in the Chelsea neighborhood of New York City.

History

The building was originally an armory that was home to Ninth Mounted Calvary which moved to 14th Street in 1914.

Adolph Zukor turned it into a studio for the Famous Players Film Company. Among films produced there was An American Citizen and That Man from Mexico starring John Barrymore.^[1]

In the 1950s Himan Brown bought the studio and gutted it to create two sound stages.^[2]

It would later be called the Production-Center Studios. It is currently owned by All Mobile Video.
