Macy’s will make Long Island City the home of its photo studio and set space.

Macy’s studio is currently located in its Fulton Street store in Brooklyn.

Macy’s was an original tenant in the Factory Building when the building was constructed in 1926. It used it as a furniture warehouse.

The building is about 1-million-square-feet and is owned by a partnership comprised of Atlas Capital, Square Mile and Invesco.

According to Crain’s, the deal with Macy’s is one of the biggest lease deals to be signed in Long Island City this year.
