The former CHCH Telecentre on King Street West in Hamilton has fallen into disrepair and is being demolished.
It opened in 1927 as the Kenmore Theatre, owned by CHCH’s founder Ken Soble.
It became a television studio in 1950 and was used for half a century.
Over 40 different shows were taped inside including “Party Game,” “Tiny Talent Time,” “Smith and Smith,” “Don Cherry’s Grapevine” and “Pasquale’s Kitchen Express.”
The studio was sold and became a production house and later a concert theatre before falling into bad condition.
