The Prospect Studios

The Prospect Studios is a production facility in Los Feliz that spans multiple acres and houses several stages for television work. The complex includes specialized spaces like green screens, rehearsal areas, and soundproof studios designed for the demands of production.

The facility began in 1915 as Vitagraph Studio and went through several transformations, serving as Warner East Hollywood Annex from 1925 onward. It became ABC Television Center in 1948 and played a key role in early television development.

The studio served as the birthplace for television shows that audiences watched for decades. The spaces here represent where storytelling through television was created and developed over many years.

The studio sits at the corner of Prospect Avenue and Talmadge Street and is reasonably accessible within Los Angeles. Keep in mind this is an active production facility, so access and viewing may be restricted during ongoing work.

The grounds still contain original water tanks and specialized ship sets from the Warner Brothers production era of the 1930s. These remaining structures are rare remnants of Hollywood's early filmmaking past.
