The Challenge
New York’s production ecosystem faces a shortage of purpose-built, large-scale studio space capable of supporting modern workflows, including XR and virtual production. Existing facilities are often fragmented, outdated, or lack the infrastructure required by major studios and streaming platforms.
At the same time, proximity to Manhattan remains critical creating a limited supply of sites that can support both scale and accessibility.
The Solution
East End is developing Sunnyside Studio as a fully integrated, next-generation production campus. The project combines high-clear sound stages, flexible production environments, and comprehensive support infrastructure within a single location.
With advanced technical capabilities, including XR/VR readiness, and efficient logistics such as underground parking, truck loading, and dedicated support spaces, the campus is designed to meet the evolving needs of modern content creation.
Strategically located minutes from Midtown, Sunnyside positions tenants at the intersection of accessibility, scale, and infrastructure—creating a differentiated asset in a supply-constrained market.
