The WLS-Prairie Farmer Building
And the WLS Studios
 |
| Above: The Prairie Farmer Building at 1230 West Washington in Chicago as depicted on the cover of the 1955 WLS Family Album. Though Prairie Farmer and WLS are long gone from this location, the building still stands. The WLS studios were located on the third floor (with two rehearsal rooms and a music library located in the penthouse area on the north edge of the building). Present day visitors to the building can still see the studio and control room areas intact, albeit inhabited by new tenants. Eventually I'll provide a video tour through parts of the third floor as they appear today. |
