It was reported earlier today that the highly talked about Marvel Studios film
The Avengers was gearing up to begin set construction next month at Grumman Studios 160,000 sq ft facility in Bethpage, Long Island. It was reported that filming would take up all seven of their stages and could last months.
Searching the Internet, I came across Grumman Studios website. I thought I would share with you just how large these stages are so you can gain some understanding of just how massive an operation this is going to be.

Hawksblueyes: These studios seem to be the size of airplane hangers. I can't wait to see the images Joss Whedon and company create in these incredible spaces.
