Cbs 2 and Kcal 9 Break Ground for New State-Of-The-Art Broadcast Facility in Studio City, California CBS 2 AND KCAL 9 BREAK GROUND FOR NEW STATE-OF-THE-ART BROADCAST FACILITY IN STUDIO CITY, CALIFORNIA DUOPOLY’S NEWSROOM WILL BE NAMED IN HONOR OF JERRY DUNPHY Los Angeles, Calif., June 17, 2005 – Viacom’s KCBS-TV (Channel 2) and KCAL-TV (Channel 9) today announced the start of construction of a new state-of-the- art broadcast facility on the historic CBS Studio Center lot in Studio City, California. A ground breaking ceremony for the new facility was held today and included Leslie Moonves, Co-President & Co-Chief Operating Officer, Viacom, and Chairman, CBS; Fred Reynolds, President & CEO, Viacom Television Stations Group; Don Corsini, President & General Manager, CBS 2 and KCAL 9; Patrick McClenahan, Senior Vice President & Station Manager, CBS 2 and KCAL 9; and Michael Klausman, President, CBS Studio Center. Los Angeles Mayor-elect Antonio Villaraigosa and City Councilmember Wendy Greuel also participated in the ground breaking ceremony. The new facility, which will include a 610-space parking garage, will be constructed on 11.5 acres of land. The 162,000 square foot, three-story building that will house the duopoly’s offices and broadcast studios will be located on the section of the Studio Center lot that previously served as the location of CBS’ “Big Brother” house. Bastien and Associates, Inc., based in Tustin, California, is the architect for the project. It is anticipated that CBS 2 and KCAL 9 will move into their new home during the first quarter of 2007. Corsini announced that the duopoly’s newsroom would be named after legendary news anchor Jerry Dunphy, the dean of broadcast journalism in Southern California. Dunphy, who passed away in 2002, worked as a lead anchor both for Channel 2 (which in 1960 launched “The Big News,” the first hour-long local newscast in the nation) and Channel 9 (which in 1990 debuted the country’s first nightly three-hour primetime newscast) during his long and distinguished career.

  • Sherman Oaks - Studio City - Toluca Lake - Cahuenga Pass Historic Districts, Planning Districts and Multi-Property Resources – 02/26/13
    Sherman Oaks - Studio City - Toluca Lake - Cahuenga Pass Historic Districts, Planning Districts and Multi-Property Resources – 02/26/13 Districts Name: Agnes Avenue Residential Historic District Description: The Agnes Avenue Residential Historic District consists of a grouping of five American Colonial Revival single-family residences lining both sides of Agnes Avenue, between Woodbridge Street on the north and Valleyheart Drive on the south, in Studio City. All of the properties are contributors to the historic district. Ranging from one to one-and-a-half stories, the residences were constructed in 1937 and 1938 as varied but cohesive examples of the American Colonial Revival style. The cohesiveness of the district is further enhanced by its deep, uniform setbacks and large lots, concrete sidewalks and landscaped parkways, mature landscaping and street trees, and period light standards. In addition, a decorative wrought-iron fence spans several of the properties on the west side of Agnes Avenue. Significance: The Agnes Avenue Residential Historic District is significant as an excellent example of American Colonial Revival residential architecture, and as an early residential district associated with the entertainment industry in Studio City. The district’s period of significance is 1937 to 1938, when all of the residences were constructed. The area that comprises the Agnes Avenue Residential Historic District was first subdivided in 1927 by the Central Motion Picture District, Inc., a consortium founded by producer and early Studio City booster and developer Mack Sennett, producer Al Christie, and a group of real estate professionals. The consortium’s goal was to build a new studio in the area, as well as a residential and commercial district "to support the economic growth of their new city." In 1928, Sennett succeeded in establishing Mack Sennett’s Studioland, just across the Los Angeles River from the Agnes Avenue district, which helped jump- start residential settlement in the area.

When did the rascals of “The Front Page” turn into the scoundrels of “Absence of Malice”? Why did reporters stop being heroes played by Clark Gable, Bette Davis and Cary Grant and become bit actors playing rogues dogging at the heels of Bruce Willis and Goldie Hawn? It all happened in the dark as people watched movies and sat at home listening to radio and watching television. “The Image of the Journalist in Popular Culture” explores the continuing, evolving relationship between the American people and their media. It investigates the conflicting images of reporters in movies and television and demonstrates, decade by decade, their impact on the American public’s perception of newsgatherers in the 20th century. The class shows how it happened first on the big screen, then on the small screens in homes across the country. The class investigates the image of the cinematic newsgatherer from silent films to the 1990s, from Hildy Johnson of “The Front Page” and Charles Foster Kane of “Citizen Kane” to Jane Craig in “Broadcast News.” The reporter as the perfect movie hero.

"The old Vitagraph lot, then ABC, now Disney in East Hollywood, once had a large backlot, but by the time of television, the backlot was gone. For an early live western tv show, the side of one of the sound stages was painted to look like a western town or desert scene or something, and the show was show live from in front of that painted building." - Jerry S. "I've been told that all the scenes [in 42nd STREET] inside the theater were shot at Prospect on [what was known as] the Vitaphone theater stage. That stage later became Studio E at ABC, (now Stage 5). Eventually, the auditorium end of the stage was demolished to make way for a new studio now called Stage 4. The Vitaphone stage was sort of like the Phantom stage at Universal in that a portion of it had a permanent auditorium set with seats and boxes. It was removed once ABC took over. The old TV series SPACE PATROL was shot on those combined stages." - Richard P.

  • The History of CBS Hollywood Television Studios
    1 The History of CBS Hollywood Television Studios By Bobby Ellerbee and Eyes Of A Generation.com Preface and Acknowledgement This is a unique look at the events that preceded the need for CBS television studios in Hollywood and, as in New York, the radio division is leading the way. This project is somewhat different than the prior reports on the New York studios of CBS and NBC, for two reasons. The first reason is that in that in those reports, television was brand new and being developed through the mechanical function to an electronic phenomenon. Most of that work occurred in and around their headquarters in New York. In this case, both CBS and NBC are at the mercy of geological and technological developments outside their own abilities…namely the Rocky Mountains and AT&T. The second reason has to do with the success of the network’s own stars. Their popularity on radio soon translated to public demand once “talking pictures” became possible. That led many New York based radio stars to Hollywood and, in a way, Mohammed had to come to the mountain. This story is told to the best of our abilities, as a great deal of the information on these facilities is now gone…like so many of the men and women who worked there. I’ve told this as concisely as possible, but some elements are dependent on the memories of those who were there many years ago, and from conclusions drawn from research. If you can add to this with facts or photos, please contact me as this is an ongoing project.
