NEW WINDSOR – The Bonura Hospitality Group is selling its flagship wedding catering venue, Anthony’s Pier 9 in New Windsor and the purchaser intents to convert the 70,000-square-foot building on Route 9W into a motion picture production studio. The sale is expected to close in mid-June.
The use will be “just like a Hollywood sound stage,” said Orange County Tourism and Film Director Amanda Dana.
The coronavirus dealt a “crushing blow” to the catering business, said Michael Bonura, who along with his brother, Joseph Jr., are the principals of the business. But, Joseph, Jr. promised “Bonura Hospitality is coming back with a vengeance” this year.
