Former WKYC East 6th Studios Get New Tenant, Finally

The Old Channel 3 Studios at E. 6th & Rockwell Avenue

By Frank Macek

The Director's Cut Blog has learned Tuesday evening our former studios at E. 6th and Rockwell will have some new life.

Our partners at cleveland.com are reporting that the Cleveland Law Firm of Calfee, Halter & Griswold LLP has signed a 20 year lease on the property.

They will move in next year once construction is completed on the interior of the building which has sat empty since WKYC-TV left in January 2001.

The firm will move 300 employees into the building and take up all 115,000 square feet and 7 stories. The law firm currently leases space in KeyBank Center at 800 Superior Avenue.

Before WKYC moved into the building, the site was home to the East Ohio Gas Co.
Good luck to the new tenants as our old home, with many tv memories, finally will have new life.

WKYC will celebrate its 10th anniversary in our "new" building at E. 13th and Lakeside Avenue in January 2011. Today, we are home to WKYC Channel 3, Sportstime Ohio and WPVX, Channel 23.
