Located for tetany years in the 1.oelta•idi;e building on Wing hate's main street, studios and offices were moved to the for- mer 'high school building at the corner of J01111 Street And Carl- ing Terrace when television broadcasting was started and there was a demand for more space. It was in March, 1962 that a disastrous fire destroyed that building and CKNX once again found itself back on the main street, this time occupying temporary quarters in two va- cant stores. The delay proved to be a lengthy one, for the management decided upon the erection of a completely mo- dern structure on the site of the building lost in the fire. Only W. T. (Doc) 4 UIC SZEIANN$, President and founder, OKNX Radio and TV one section of that building had been saved. That wing has been incorporated into the new structure. Completely modern in every detail, the CKNX headquarters now offers the very finest of equipment in both radio and television departments.
