Steiner Studios

I usually come here for fittings when I do acting gigs. Many productions in NYC use it for soundstage sand office space. Very easy to get to by bus from my house. Nice views of the city from top floor of 25 Washington.

Matt B. and I spent an evening at Studio 6 in Steiner Studios for Vanessa S. and Miranda F.‘s wedding. It was a beautiful event, and the space was perfect.
The venue is a little hard to get to, but I will admit that Matt and my experience wasn’t typical. (Boring story alert.) Our cab got hit by a motorcycle within throwing distance of Studio 6, but because of the wall around the perimeter we had to walk all the way around to the entrance and all the way in. It took almost half an hour and I was wearing very new, very painful heels. Take a cab for sure, then make that cab escort you right to the door.
But once we arrived, everything was pretty much perfect. The ceremony and afterparty took place on an outdoor deck with a panoramic city view, and the reception was just a floor down in a banquet hall with windows for walls. This was a rare venue in that the nighttime view was even more gorgeous than the daytime view. We ate and drank, danced and frolicked well into the AM hours. I don’t know which vendors, if any, were attached to Steiner, but catering, entertainment, and all that were right on point.
It was a great pleasure to watch two happy loving people get married, and Steiner was a splendid venue. Congratulations to Vanessa and Miranda, and thanks for including us in your big day!

Our residency program booked this venue for the graduation party of our senior class. The venue is blessed with a fantastic balcony and a great view. That said, it was not the ideal place for any sort of party as the music had to be off by 11 PM making for a very short graduation party.
I think it may work better for other purposes but definitely not a place to plan any sort of celebration.

The closest bus is the B57. I would take A/​C train to Jay street then switch to B57 bus heading towards Maspeth…

So yeah, this was actually a nice venue to see a show. Steiner Studios I ended up going there in 2007 to see Bacardi B-​Live concert. It was really good. I got to go for free, tickets were given out through this really random exclusive (maybe?) system. I knew someone who had like 8 tickets so I was with a nice group of guys and girls. Ended up see Calle 13 (they sounded awesome seriously), Talib Kweli (he sounded awful, he did not do any of his real songs. He just did cover of 70’s songs and stuff), Sean Paul was there too. The girls I was with were just freaks: Russian and spanish girls. (Final act, the ladies started to go crazy, he was getting them going, Now the grindin finally started, lol) — It all went down September 22, 2007

This is by far the best studio complex in all of NYC. Some people might want to dock it a star for being hard to get to, but if you’ve ever worked in the other studios in town you’ll quickly realize that it’s worth the effort.
As one of the newest studios, it is clean, spacious, and completely state of the art. Not only are the stages fantastic, but the bathrooms put other studios to shame. I know, they’re just bathrooms so who cares, right? Wrong. Not only are there bathrooms for each individual stage, but the bathrooms themselves are clean and spacious enough to work well as changing areas, unlike studios like Kaufman Astoria or Silvercup. You’ll fund yourself being happy to be working there just for the bathrooms.
To address the inconvenience issue, yes it’s remote. But there is a train reasonably nearby, and buses that are even closer, including one right outside the gate. Use the MTA’s Trip Planner to find the fastest way to get you there.
If you have a car, I suggest driving if possible. The studio is right off the BQE and has ample parking in it’s own HUGE parking lot on the property. No need to find on street parking or a garage costing half your day’s pay.
After your first few times figuring it out, it will become a lot easier. No matter how you choose to get there, you will not be disappointed.
