For Your Imagination

This place is a disaster. Unauthorized club space that just makes a lot of noise and disturbs nearby residents. should be shut down.

FYI specializes in new media branded entertainment. The company also owns an amazing 3,000 sq. ft. loft space in the Flatiron section of NYC that you can rent out. Some of the best features of the loft are 15 inch ceilings, a wall of south facing windows, 3 bathrooms and a huge green screen. They charge about $ 800 for 8 hours and $ 500 for 4 hours.

If you’re involved in the new media/​dotcom scene in New York, you’ve undoubtedly heard of For Your Imagination and you’ve probably gotten drunk there at least once. By day, it’s a gorgeous loft space just east of Chelsea that houses FYI’s Internet video production operations. By night, it’s something totally different.
The great thing about FYI is that they’ve really opened up their doors to the local community; they host in-​house parties on a regular basis and rent their space out at a very reasonable rate to peripherally related local groups (the Video 2.0 meetup
Creative Commons) for after-​hours parties. They don’t rent to just anyone, so they’d probably like to get to know you before you try to rent it out for your birthday party, but if you’re part of the digital media community this is a great option for an events space.
