rkolsen 1697 Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 NBCUniversal Telemundo Enterprises today unveiled plans for a $250 million 450,000 sq ft in Miami Dade County. The new headquarters is going to replace their current facilities where they have been for the past 30 years in a shoe factory. The new headquarters will initially hold 1,100 workers but can handle 1,300. Telemundo, Telemundo Studios, Telemundo International, NBC Universo and their associated digital operations will be moving into the new facility. http://www.tvtechnology.com/business/0011/telemundo-to-build-250-million-hq-in-miamidade/277890 http://www.adweek.com/tvnewser/after-30-years-in-an-old-shoe-warehouse-telemundo-is-getting-a-new-home/283850 As a side note I wonder if they'll ultimately consolidate their existing NBC News Bureau into the new facility.
Amra 173 Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 Will it also be the new home for WTVJ/WSCV?
TheRolyPoly 2670 Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 Will it also be the new home for WTVJ/WSCV? Nope. WTVJ/WSCV will remain in Miramar. I've passed by through that "shoe factory" that Telemundo has been home for 30 years, many times when traveling around Hialeah. I'm just curious as to what they'll do with that building now as there's local businesses all around that area, including the Hialeah-famous Nooooo Que Barato! (No, That's Cheap!)
Mrtraveler01 739 Posted February 11, 2016 Posted February 11, 2016 This definately proves that NBCU is very committed at making Telemundo the dominant Spanish language station in the US. And considering the state of Univision lately, they just might be able to do it.

Wonder how many of those businesses are dependent on Telemundo being in the neighborhood?
A3N 1002 Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 It would make sense to move WTVJ/WSCV into this new building to keep everything under one roof. They could follow the same approach that Univision took with WLTV when they finally moved them into the newsplex.
TheRolyPoly 2670 Posted February 12, 2016 Posted February 12, 2016 Wonder how many of those businesses are dependent on Telemundo being in the neighborhood? Plus, there are trailer parks around the area and a train nearby that constantly goes through. Trust me, I know because I live near Hialeah.

Trust me, I know because I live near Hialeah. It's a definite upgrade for them. Their current facilities look like a dump and it appears there's limited parking. https://www.google.com/search?q=telemundo+headquarters&rlz=1C9BKJA_enUS660US660&oq=telemundo+h&aqs=chrome.0.69i59j69i57j0l2j69i60.3260j0j7&sourceid=chrome-mobile&ie=UTF-8&hl=en-US#hl=en-US&q=telemundo+hialeah+headquarters&istate=lrl:iv&rlimm=8669542474740364242
