2014 has brought us some amazing times at The 1896 and Primate Props.  From the yet released movie with Seth Rogen, James Franco, Anthony Mackie and Lizzy Caplan; to television’s Blacklist, National Geographic and Forever; to campaigns for Isopure, DKNY, Under Armour and Reebok; to music videos by Interpol, The Black Keys and Estelle; to amazing shoots for Interview, Harpers Bazaar, Esquire, Elle and Vanity Fair (just to name a few)…we had a ball!

As 2015 draws nearer we look forward to more epic photo and film shoots….and as always we welcome events into our busy schedule.  Whether it was a full house with Urban Daddy/Porsche, Lyft, Guinness or Coors – or creativity was the focus at the NEWD Art Fair – or a happy couple was tying the knot – events, weddings and parties have been an exciting part of life at the 1896.

Pro tip:  slower months like April and August are perfect for booking events.  Email us for information!

The 1896

Get ready to be jealous!  The 1896 hosted Patina‘s infamous Roller Jam 2014 and their new collaboration with The Color Condition – complete with Robertas making pizza in our courtyard, a Cool Haus ice cream truck in Area 3, tattoos from Greenpoint Tattoo and Tattly, photobooths, polaroids and of course ROLLERSKATING!  Photos by Chellise Michael Photography.

We couldn’t wait to host the MOTOXMADE closing MADE Fashion Week party this month.  Love it when we can show Manhattan how to have a proper good time.
