Which studio on Las Palmas Avenue housed 'I Love Lucy' production?

General Service Studios on Las Palmas Avenue housed I Love Lucy production during its first two seasons. Desilu Productions rented space there after Desi Arnaz and Lucille Ball chose to film the series in Hollywood before a live audience.

The studio was not originally designed around the show’s unusual needs. General Service Studios had to accommodate audience seating, multiple sets, lighting, cameras, and safety requirements. Its soundstage was adapted so the production could use three cameras and capture a complete performance on 35mm film, a method that became enormously influential for later sitcoms.

After the 1951–1953 seasons, Desilu moved the series to the Motion Picture Center on Cahuenga Boulevard, which was renamed Desilu Studios. The original Las Palmas property later became known as Hollywood Center Studios and is now associated with Sunset Las Palmas Studios. RKO Radio Pictures is a common distractor because Desilu later purchased RKO in 1957, but RKO was not the original I Love Lucy production studio.
