"January is moving month for a lot of folks at Kink.com. Ten years after purchasing the historic Armory for $14.5 million, the BDSM film producer is ending film production at the site, and its in-house directors are scattering to Nevada, Southern California and elsewhere in the Bay Area. Filming will end next month, although Kink.com will continue to have administrative offices in the building at Mission and 14th streets."

I live very close to that building and will miss my random path-crossings with the various sexy men who filmed scenes there. Before I knew that porn was being produced there, I was puzzled as to why I was seeing so many hot guys go into that building. BDSM isn't my thing, though, so I am not particularly interested in their finished product.

That's sad. Some of my favorite scenes have been filmed there.

It is a Great old building -- Any word on what it will be used for?

[bigvalboy]

It is a fabulous building. I hope it survives.

The story linked to in the original post has quite a description of what the facility is to be used for. Too much to paraphrase, really.

What building is being referred to? Thanks.

What building is being referred to? Thanks.

The Armory in San Francisco. The OP included an article that discusses some of the potential future uses of the building.

There's a documentary on kink.com that tells you a lot about the building and shows plenty of what went on inside.

Definitely had some great times in that building! There truly was nothing like it for how they had it set up. That said, if this change allows them to invest more $ into the building that could be a good thing.

OH, there goes my fantasy of visiting there both as an voyeur and a participant.

Thanks! I suspected that is the building referred to. What a loss.

It isn't a loss just yet. They are trying to raise funds to renovate the building and bring it up to modern standards. I find it remarkable that the place stood vacant for so many years.

Bringing up an old thread - has anyone else noticed that the kink.com updates (Men on Edge, Bound Gods, Bound in Public, and so on) have become much less frequent in the last few months? There used to be a regular update on at least Men On Edge & Bound Gods every week.

I've noticed the same thing. I'm thinking of cancelling my membership. My favorite actor Connor Maguire hasn't done a shoot in a long time

They seem to go in cycles. I canceled my Men on Edge membership years ago (and my Naked Kombat before that) for the same reason.

Mike Gaite had some scenes with them, but I don't think he has done any covefefe lately. I only saw a few of his trailers because I'm not really into kink.
