Steiner Studios is the largest US film and television production studio complex outside of Hollywood. It is located on 20 acres within the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Steiner Studios is home to ten soundstages, totaling 131,000 square feet (12,200 m2). There is also an additional 224,000 square feet (20,800 m2) of support space, which includes offices, dressing rooms, hair and make-up rooms, wardrobe rooms, mill shops, spray booth, and prop storage. Office and support spaces have access to satellite uplinks and a high-speed data backbone.
Soundstages are equipped with full grids from 26 to 45 feet, are column-free, sound-insulated, and offer loading and staging areas. Built to accommodate film, high-definition television (HDTV) and digital camera productions, each stage is wired with a minimum of 4,800 amps of power and 50 to 200 tons of cooling. Stages are accessed via 13-foot-high (4.0 m) to 20-foot-high (6.1 m) elephant doors.
Each stage is attached to production and support space, including make-up and dressing rooms, green rooms, storage areas, conference rooms, and offices. In addition to the enclosed building areas, there are assembly and secondary areas for "lay-down" of materials and equipment used in large-scale film projects.
The facility also features a 100-seat screening room and a full commissary, on-site parking, 24/7 security and lighting and grip equipment services.

Famous quotes containing the word steiner:
“It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past.... Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”
—George Steiner (b. 1929)
