Skanska, one of the world’s largest construction and development companies, serves as Skanska and CPR broke ground on the $32 million project in August. contractor on the eagerly awaited project. “It’s virtually impossible to overstate
the importance of this project to the future of public radio in Greater Cincinnati,” said Richard Eiswerth, president and general manager of CPR. “More than 60 years in the making, this new home for CPR will usher in a new standard of excellence in broadcast and online communications, as well as provide a dynamic local space for creative expression. We are forever indebted to the generosity of those many donors and visionaries who helped make this a
reality.” CPR has outgrown its current office space, which is rented from Cincinnati’s PBS station. In addition to its cramped quarters for staffers, the building offers limited public access. The new 35,000-sq.-ft. building will feature two on-air studios; two interview studios; one performance studio; 11,000 sq. ft. of office space and a public gathering area. see SKANSKA page 2
