Phase one

Out with the Young, in with the new.

The keys changed hands. Young Studios is now Centra Studios.
Same walls, same floors, new vision. We're building what will become NYC's premier rental experience, piece by piece, day by day.

Aly still answers your calls. Bookings work as they always have—for now.

Studios B and E have transformed completely. New cycloramas stand ready. Studio B looks nothing like before—intentionally so. It breathes differently now. Both spaces serve production needs with surgical precision, but each in their own language.

Everywhere, the small things matter. New gear fills our shelves. Better lights. Less clutter. The building feels lighter, more purposeful.

This is just the foundation.

Coming soon: a complete website that works for you. A booking system that makes sense. Equipment selection at your fingertips. Membership options for those who call these studios home. Workshops for those hungry to learn. Studios A, C, and D await their turn for rebirth. More comforts, more tools—more reason to stay.

Floor 20 is becoming our sanctuary for the essential—plug-and-play spaces where even first-timers can create beauty without friction. Multiple angles, instant inspiration, minimal setup.

Floor 21 speaks a different dialect—built for the commercial minds, the production veterans who need space for complexity, who paint with light in paragraphs rather than sentences.

This is just the beginning of the story. The pages ahead look promising.

Welcome to Centra Studios.
