From Wikipedia

Steinway & Sons, also known as Steinway, is a German-American piano company, founded in 1853 in New York City by the German piano builder Heinrich Engelhard Steinweg. The company's growth led to a move to a larger factory in New York, and later opening an additional factory in Hamburg, Germany. The New York factory, in the borough of Queens, supplies the Americas, and the factory in Hamburg supplies the rest of the world.
