NYC Tattoo Studio – A Legacy of Ink on the Bowery

Located in the heart of Manhattan’s historic Bowery, NYC Tattoo Studio stands on the very streets where electric tattooing was invented over a century ago. This legendary neighborhood was home to Samuel O’Reilly, the man who revolutionized the tattoo industry by patenting the first electric tattoo machine in 1891—right here on the Bowery. Today, we carry on that rich tradition, honoring the past while pushing the boundaries of modern tattoo artistry.

A Studio with Deep Roots in Tattoo History

For over 100 years, the Bowery has been the epicenter of tattoo culture in New York City. Once known for its gritty bars, sideshows, and underground tattoo parlors, this stretch of Manhattan saw the birth of American tattooing as we know it today. Now, NYC Tattoo Studio brings that same pioneering spirit into the present, blending old-school craftsmanship with the best in modern tattoo technology, hygiene, and artistry.
