Description
Title supplied by cataloger.
The Columbia Broadcasting System building opened on April 30, 1938, but it had previously been the old Nestor Studios location, which housed early radio stations. The company's sprawling production facilities are at another location - at Beverly and Fairfax in West Hollywood. The architect for this building was William Lescaze.
Exterior view of the CBS Columbia Square building located at 6121 Sunset Boulevard, at the corner of El Centro Avenue in Hollywood. This five-story office building is home to radio stations KNX 1070 and KCBS 83FM, as well as CBS Channel 2 television station.; For a later view (same angle), see #00063457.
