Warner Brothers is close to a deal to rent New York's Kingsbridge Armory as a studio set for a movie version of Richard Matheson's famous apocalyptic novel "I Am Legend" reports the New York Daily News.

Warner is in the process of closing a deal to rent the entire 190,950-square-foot first floor interior of the armory for seven months from February 27th through September 30th.

I Am Legend, which was originally set in Los Angeles, centers on the lone survivor of a plague that has transformed the world's population into blood-sucking vampires. It has undergone many development changes over the years with differing people ranging from Arnold Schwarzenegger to Will Smith involved.
