The studio is located in the neighborhood of Long Island City in the borough of Queens and the Port Morris neighborhood of the Bronx. The studio complex has been operating since 1983 in the former Silvercup Bakery building. It is owned and operated by brothers Alan and Stuart Suna. HistoryDuring its early years the facility was used mostly for the filming of music videos and commercials, although occasionally scenes for motion pictures were shot there, including Highlander and Garbo Talks. Norman Leigh, well known among New York City filmmakers for his electrical/gaffing work on the 1969 film Midnight Cowboy, oversaw the studio during its first few years. Over the years, use of the studio's space has shifted toward the production of television series. ProductionsSilvercup was the primary shooting facility for ABC's Hope & Faith, and HBO's Sex and the City and The Sopranos. Other film and television productions that have made use of the studio include: {{div col|colwidth=18em}}
