Heard an interesting tidbit on a CBS radio hourly newscast this morning. 
Today, it seems, is the 50th anniversary of the last CBS broadcast from 
485 Madison Avenue. The piece was worded in a way that suggested, but 
didn't actually say that radio's move was from 485 to the Broadcast 
Center--although I suppose it's true, if you consider a rest stop of 
many years duration at 51 West 52nd.

The piece did include some clips from the last news broadcast from 
485--"Farewell to Studio Nine". It's available online and is very 
interesting listening...
