USA Casting Agency
About
Modeling agencies in Chelsea tend to cluster where the garment district spills into the loft buildings. USA Casting Agency fits the pattern, though the pattern has shifted—less Seventh Avenue, more side streets where the rents still let a small office breathe. They handle the usual mix: runway, fit modeling, commercial print, and the occasional union gig that pays actual residuals. The work isn’t glamorous, but it’s steady enough to keep a roster of faces cycling through the door. You’ll find them at 245 W 29th St New York, NY 10001, a block where the sidewalk feels like a backstage corridor. If you’re serious about getting on the board, call 212-555-0198 and ask for the next open call. Directions are easiest pulled from the map; the front door is the one with the frosted glass that doesn’t say much. Bring headshots, comp cards, and the kind of patience that survives long elevator rides.
