Seeing production sets costing more than $750,000 apiece destroyed after use in one feature film gave Alex Reid something to think about.
The location manager for the NBC show "American Dreams" came to the conclusion that it made sense to purchase sets, consolidate under one roof, and rent them to studios.
Next, he approached--some friends in the business and got the financing together. In December, Riverfront Stages Inc. opened its doors for business--inside a Sylmar warehouse, close to a reservoir, hence the name.
