About This File

My 50th building and the finale to this weeks release party! The Canadian Broadcasting Centre is a special purpose office building in downtown Toronto. Completed in 1993, the building is the heart of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC), Canada’s publicly owned television and radio network. Most of CBC’s English programming and a significant portion of the network’s French shows are produced in the building (television in the roof studios and radio on the floors below). To accommodate television and radio production, the building is built on a series of rubber pads that minimize unwanted vibrations. In total, the Broadcasting Centre is home to 3 radio studios, 19 production studios, 3 television studios, 2 local television studios, 2 all purpose studios and one national news studio. Besides the CBC, the building is also home to the International Academy of Design and Technology. Perhaps though the structure’s signature feature is the 13 storey Barbara Frum Atrium, named in honour of former CBC news anchor Barbara Frum. In 2006, several Canadian police forces and the Canadian Security Intelligence Agency cracked an Islamic terrorist cell and potentially averted an attack on the Broadcasting Centre. The 17 suspected terrorists had a long list of potential targets and had considered attempting to storm the building, take hostages and seize control of the air waves.

The Canadian Broadcasting Centre comes to SimCity with a growable and a plopable lot that measure 7x7 and provide 3,718 Co$$$. Three dependencies, BSC Spa Essentials 2, BSC Mega Props CP Vol1 and BSC Texturepack Cycledogg V01 b. See the readme for complete details.

Guess I spoke too soon about the Jean Canfield Building being the ultimate finale to your week of uploads! This one's another keeper. Another fine job, Sam!

Amazing work. So glad to see this building finally made -- and made well. Love the HNIC (that's "Hockey Night in Canada" for you non-hosers) billboard on the side of the building. 10/10

It is a very great bat, but one thing that is keeping me from downloading any of your fine stuff is that I need to download and then install, as well as loads of dependencies, and coming from an original immigrant who used to live in Greater Toronto Area not to download this eye candy is saying a lot. And we don't get a lot of GTA bats to start with. It's a sad day for me!

Very nice! Glad someone is creating more Downtown Toronto building icons. This will go well with all of the other ones I have. Would love to see someone create the famous" Rogers Centre".

Thanks everyone. Kendie: the 3 dependencies for this one are all fairly standard if you use any of my stuff. I probably only use 3-5 different dependency packs on any of my creations so that's 3-5 downloads for almost all of my 50 buildings (not really a load!). They're all linked in the readme. If reading the readme and a few extra clicks is enough for you to not bother... well all I can say is that's your choice.
