Fantastic Midtown Art Studio with skyline views

1. Load in and out: Renter can come in with normal gear via the passenger elevators, as long as it can be carried by hand and if it is just a regular suitcase size rolling case. However, if the Renter brings in racks, heavy-duty equipment and items longer than 6 feet, the Renter has to use the freight elevators. No exceptions. The freight elevator entrance is on 39th Street (not 38th), close to 8th Avenue between the pub and the parking garage and is a silver metal door with the number “308” on it. Freight elevator service is available from Mon.-Fri. from 8:00AM to 5:30PM and on Saturday from 8:00AM to 12:30PM. No service on Sundays. The front lobby is open on Mon.-Sat. from 8:00AM to 11:00PM and from 9:00AM to 10:00PM on Sundays. You can rent the studio for longer than 11:00PM just let us know what you need. 2. Studio Key Door Lock: If Renter has booked a multiday rental we will provide a temporary door look key code. To open the door you push the "Schlage" button on the top first and the keypad will light up in blue. Then you type in your number code, which we will give to you in the morning of your rental day if you have a multiday rental, and the door opens. You walk in the studio, close the door and the Lock will automatically lock again after 30 seconds. You could mechanically unlock it from the inside with the handle. Please note that the "Schlage" button on the inside of the look does not lock or open the door. That button is only used to set up the different alarm sound options, so please do not touch it. When you unlock the lock with the inside handle the door remains unlocked for 30 seconds until it locks automatically again. Please keep the door closed, so no strangers can walk in. We had theft issues before when the door was open, even when people where in the studio. When you leave the studio you open the door lock with the handle on the inside and walk out and close the door and then hit the top button again ("Schlage") so the door locks. Please always check if the door is really locked. Parking: There are several parking garages around our studio. Free street parking is available around our studio after 7:00PM Mon-Sat. and all day on Sundays in dedicated areas. Commercial vehicles can park for limited times if you pay the parking meters in dedicated areas during the week before 7:00PM. Parking charges vary greatly and are also depending on the time of day or if there are any other events happening in the area. We suggest using the app “Best Parking” to figure out the best option. 3. Hallways must stay clear: All hallways must stay clear of people and materials. Hallways cannot be used for storage or waiting area for people even for a short time. It would be a fire code violation! There is no signage in the lobby or in the hallways allowed; the only exception is the studio door. 4. Shipping product and equipment to the studio: Nobody is usually at the studio, so the Renter cannot ship anything to the studio before the rental, unless the Renter arranges delivery-receiving services with us for additional fees. The staff of the building is not allowed to receive or store any packages on anybody’s behalf. You have to arrange deliveries during your rental time or arrange deliveries with us for additional fees and only if it is possible and available. We can send you a custom price for this via the Peerspace system. 5. Damages: Most damages accrues when renters carelessly move their stuff and gear into or out of the studio and when they move furniture. Renters are responsible for any drag marks in hallways and studio floors and it can cost $500 and more to fix these issues. No dragging of any boxes, equipment or furniture on hallway or studio floors. Please be aware that hallways are monitored by the building and have video surveillance. Renter is not allowed to move any furniture without permission besides chairs, folding tables (Do not move the large table in the conference room). Move chairs and folding tables with two people if required and never drag anything on the floor. Renters are not allowed to tape anything to the walls, floors or ceilings. Renters are not allowed to remove any of the artwork, only Wolfgang or Jorg are able to do that. Renter is responsible for any damage done by them, their guests and associates during the rental time. 7. Cleaning: Basic cleaning is included but we ask the Renter to leave the studio in the similar condition as it was found at the beginning of the rental. 8. Trash: We will take care of the trash bags after the event. There are trash bags in the kitchen cabinet. We ask the Renters to make sure that their trash is not “wet”. Empty all fluids and drinks into the toilet before the Renter puts the containers, cups, glasses, bottles and so on into the trash. Please inform us if you leave more than one bag of trash behind, so we can take care of it before the next rental starts. Please place the trash bag inside the studio near the entrance. 9. Use common sense: There is no smoking, no throwing things out of the window, no cooking and no overnight stay allowed in our building. Turn off light and air conditioning systems and make sure the studio door is looked before you leave. Do NOT discuss any issue with anybody of the building staff, you must call us first! We ask you to send us a text the moment you are out of the studio, so we know how long you stayed. 10. Speaking to building Staff and Security: Building staff is there to serve leaseholders and building tenants not our Renters or their guests. If you have any questions or issues about anything, please contact us, Wolfgang (212-7251901) or Jorg (212-781-8178). All issues need to be discussed with us first and never with the building staff except if it is a real emergency and you can’t reach any of us. 11. Bring what you need: Renter is responsible for all utensils, cups, plates, napkins and tablecloths. 12. Overtime use: We are a very busy studio and we do have often multiple rentals on the same day. You will be able to stay longer for the same hourly fees if the studio is available and if you coordinate with us in advance. You cannot just stay longer without our approval. We ask you to send us a text to 212-781-8178 the moment you are out of the studio, so we know how long you stayed. 13. Location Release Form: We are happy to sign a location release form as long as it is limited to the inside of our studio only. We don’t own the building, so we cannot sign any other release. Specify the location with our exact address in your release form.
