Renovations at the CBC Prince Edward Island building are still underway and the most recently completed portion of the project is a relocated, accessible radio studio.

Located at the entrance of the Charlottetown building now, the new English radio studio will be the new home to Island Morning and Mainstreet.

CBC P.E.I. to spend $2M on renovations

After delay, CBC building renovations expected to begin in October

Renovation plans were made public for the location at 430 University Ave. back in 2018, but the timeline was delayed to secure a successful bidder and then again during COVID-19.

CBC P.E.I.'s building had not previously been renovated since 1978. Here is a look at the new studio.
