This historic studio was built in 1918 by silent movie producer Thomas Ince and through the years was owned by Cecil B DeMille and RKO Pictures (at one point that studio was owned by Howard Hughes), Desi Arnaz and Lucille Ball’s Desilu Productions, Grant Tinker and Gannett, who renovated the property in 1986. Sony acquired it in 1991 and held on to it for 13 years. The facility is currently owned by Hackman Capital Partners and offers 13 sound stages, production and executive office space, conference rooms, a theater, commissary and a fitness center.
