The Legendary Hit Factory Is No MORE! Got this from another board:
History being torn down…June 2006, after buying the Hit Factory for an estimated $17.5million, real estate firm HF sponsor Corporation announces plans to transform the structure into a luxury condominium with 27 units. Mary sophomore album "My Life" was recorded there. Biggie entire album was recorded there, Stevie Wonder- Songs in Key of life was recorded there. Toni and Whitney recorded there so many more have recorded there, On 1/6/94 albums and songs prod. Or mastered at the hit factory rake in 41 Grammies. **  | |

My friend Jerry Ragovoy...
...was the original owner of The Hit Factory. It's the current New York State of Mind. What was once the fabulous Fillmore East...  
...is now a bank and condos. What was once the historic Cafe Au Go Go and Garrick Theatre... 
...has been reduced to joints that inhabit a basic strip mall.

This makes me sad. It was one of my many childhood dreams to record a song there. (If not tons...)
However, thanks for the amazing music. | |
