Clean common areas allowing guest access including bathrooms, kitchens, and entrances.
Collect and clean dishes, silverware, and other provided host amenities, if applicable.

Parking options

Paid onsite parking, Free street parking, Metered street parking

Parking description

-Free parking 2 blocks east on Marine (I can always find a spot no matter the time of day). -Pay-to-park available directly out the front door for $2/hour -15 min flash zone outside front door

Space has natural light

Natural light can be blocked out

Lighting description

There is a large 12'x12' window with blinds for control. During the day is relatively dark, but there is a period when the sun is setting that light shines nicely through the alley and creates some great patterns on the wall and a beautiful warm aura in the room. (see photos)

Space is not soundproof

Ambient noise description

For video/photo sound has not been an issue. My windows face the alley of the building, and at times you may hear noise from passerbys walking or sirens from the street for a few seconds but 99% of the time it is very quiet. For audio recording, I have converted a walk in closet on the upper level to a vocal booth (far from the window), with foam treatment all around. Sound has never been an issue for my recordings.

Crew access

Stairs, Elevator

Equipment loading description

You may load in through the front, my unit is accessed just up the stairs right when you walk in the building. You may use the elevator if that's easier.

Staging area is available

There is an entire lobby for anybody to hang out away from the shoot. You can also hang out on the second level or wherever the action is not taking place within the unit.

All rooms are available for shooting

Shooting the exterior of the building is allowed

Electrical system description

Not sure on the details but there are outlets all around and I have several extension chords/power strips. There is a circuit breaker in my unit which can be accessed if needed.

Circuit breaker can be accessed

General Rules

-Check-in at front desk upon arrival -No smoking - 420 friendly -Respect the gear! Guitars etc are very expensive, please handle with care. -Please allow 24 hours notice for the furniture/gear to be arranged as needed. *Additional fees may apply for last minute booking and gear rental so please read full listing or message me for exact quote* Feel free to message me with any other questions/concerns -Andrew

All ages are allowed in the space

Production insurance is not required

Furniture and decorations may be moved

Most shoots require some re-arranging which I am happy to do, but because I won't know exactly what you need until you arrive, please plan your length of booking accordingly. For example, a music video with the piano may only need close ups, in which case the location of piano doesnt really matter and I can leave it. But if you wish to have the entire space empty other than 1 piano in the middle of the main room, that requires a lot more time for rearrangement and could take 30 minutes to relocate everything that is in the way from a prior shoot. As always, i encourage communication prior to booking/arrival.

Smoke machines are allowed

Nudity is allowed

Security cameras and recording devices

Check with your host if there are any surveillance cameras or recording devices in the space.

Recording devices in bathrooms or dressing rooms are prohibited by the Peerspace Services Agreement.
