The future site of Manhattan’s first purpose-built film and TV soundstages has added two blue-chip backers, private equity firm Blackstone and real estate company Hudson Pacific Properties.
Office space giant Vornado Realty Trust had already been aboard the Sunset Pier 94 Studios project, which has been in the works for several years. The three companies have now formed a private-public partnership with the New York City Economic Development Corp., committing a total of $350 million to the effort. The location along the Hudson River and the West Side Highway is about a mile north of Chelsea Piers, a long-established TV production hub. It is a few blocks west of the Broadway theater district and the studio homes of several late-night TV shows.
While overall production in New York (outside of the current shutdowns due to the writers and actors strikes) has been booming of late, it has mostly been doing so in Brooklyn and Queens, not in Manhattan. Other venues like Lionsgate’s new Great Point Studios in Yonkers have sprouted up near the city, and New Jersey has also been ramping up its efforts to serve New York’s production needs.
Billed as a “first-of-its-kind space,” Sunset Pier 94 will have six soundstages along with open riverfront areas and other community amenities when it is completed at the end of 2025. With construction expected to start in the coming weeks, developers say the project will create more than 1,300 construction jobs and 400 permanent jobs, contributing $6.4 billion to the local economy over the next 30 years. RBC and Ivanhoe Cambridge are providing $183 million in construction financing.
Plans for the 266,000-square-foot development include production control room facilities and 145,000 square feet
