The office location is likely decided by the suits and bean counters outside the region.
Here's where your local media currently sits:
- CBC Radio is the only major broadcaster in Downtown Kitchener. Their studio space fits with their general policy of having their studios in urban centres.
- 105.3 FM is still at 255 King St. N in Waterloo. (University and King)
- CHYM and 570 News broadcasts from the Boardwalk. They used to be at the top of 305 King W before they moved out to the Boardwalk. I first learned about that during the 2003 blackout and the poor reporters were having to walk up and down the stairs to get to the studio.
- Rogers TV is at 85 Grand Crest Place, Kitchener which is well outside any core but geographically pretty much the center of Waterloo Region with easy access to the 401 and Highway 8.
- The Record (and Co) have a Kitchener PO Box, but as far as I know, no local brick and mortar office.
