I. CBS interviewed brokers to sell its Television City campus: sources
By Hannah Miet | September 27, 2017 07:00AM
The Real Estate News.
“This building has enough concrete in it to build 28
miles of four-lane highway,” Edward R. Murrow
proclaimed in a 1953 CBS special about “Television
City,” the network’s mammoth complex in Los
Angeles’ Fairfax District.
Over the next six decades, TV City would became
an iconic venue that hosted shows such as
“The Price is Right,” “All in the Family,” and
“Dancing with the Stars.”
But its status as a center of entertainment
and culture may be in flux. CBS Corporation
has been in discussions with brokerages to
shop the complex at 7800 Beverly Boulevard,
The Real Deal has learned.
After interviewing more than five firms for
the roughly 25-acre property on Beverly
Boulevard and Fairfax Avenue — which
has about 1 million square feet of studio
and office space, including eight stages —
CBS recently narrowed the search down
to two, sources said.
The network hasn’t indicated if it intends
to vacate the property entirely, sources
said. The nature of what will be marketed
— a full sale, a sale-leaseback or a ground
lease — remains unclear.
Representatives for CBS did not return
multiple requests for comment.
CBS subleases much of the space at TV
City to other production outfits, sources
said. The network may be looking to
consolidate its own operations at its Studio
City campus at 4024 Radford Avenue,
they said.
Though the discussions are in a preliminary
stage, interested buyers are said to be circling.
At least two major developers looked to talk
with CBS once chatter about the broker
interviews began to spread, sources said.
TV City does not appear to be entitled for
new development.
The campus, designed by architect Gin Wong
at Pereira & Luckman, was built in 1952 on
the former site of Gilmore Stadium. CBS acquired
the land from the A.F. Gilmore Company
for $1.2 million in 1949.

III. COMMENTS
Contributing dollars to the RMA/RMALA to
either RMALA membership or RMA night
enables RMA to ingratiate itself by
capitalizing on most professional
recording musicians to use for it’s
exclusive financial benefit at the
expense of most career recording
musicians demise.
