Sony Music Studios

Sony Music Studios

Sony Music Studios was an American music recording and mastering facility in New York City. The five-story building was a music and broadcasting complex located at 460 W. 54th Street, at 10th Avenue, in the Hell's Kitchen neighborhood of Manhattan. It opened in 1993[1] and closed in August 2007.

In addition to being the production facility for new popular, classical, and other albums, it was also used as space for soundtrack recording and mixing, post-production, and rehearsals. Sony Music Studios also had facilities for live and taped television broadcasts.

Prior to its acquisition by Sony in 1993, the industrial red-brick barn was owned by Camera Mart for 20 years and leased the space to movie and television producers.[1]
