Modern Art & Photo Studio
general nature of the location is very open. So a Photographer or Videographer could easily use this location to represent a Bedroom, Living Room, Bar or other general spaces. It all depends on what the Individuals leasing this space are prepared to bring with them. I highly recommend this location...
