KERA to get replacement studio/office site

[east-tx-tv 124]

The longtime PBS station (and associated FM's) in north TX will be getting new/replaced facilities as a part of a redevelopment of KERA's longtime site just north of downtown Dallas.  Developers plan an office tower and residential tower on the site, with new studios/offices for KERA and the FM's.  News just broke earlier today, so no artwork/mockups for the station yet, just for the towers.

 

It will be strange to not see the buildings that made up the original pre-KERA facilities there anymore (KBTV, Dallas' DuMont affiliate was there before being sold to A.H. Belo for WFAA's first station site).
