"iHeartMedia Inc. is relocating its six local radio stations from Farmington Hills to Eastern Market, into a still-being-renovated building in the heart of the commercial food district."

According to the article, the building was purchased before the pandemic. Think this will happen? Good or bad decision?

Good decision. They don't need that H*** building in Farmington. Nobody is ever there. It is empty.

And even though they have 5 FM stations, they'll only have 3 studios down there I think. The move saves a lot of money.

Unfortunately for employees, they now get to pay city of Detroit income tax of 1.2% for non-residents.

Good luck to them should they ever try to claim work outside the city, because they'll never see that money returned.

Agreed. Good decision. This will make the stations a more visible part of the community and will allow iHM to say it is participating in Detroit's rebirth.
