The history of WKBW

The day: November 30, 1958. The place: 1420 Main Street in Buffalo, New York - the original home of WKBW-TV. The person: Rick Azar. He signed the station on with the words, "Ladies and Gentlemen, WKBW-TV Channel 7 is on-the-air!" The first broadcast on that snowy night was the Jimmy Cagney classic film, "Yankee Doodle Dandy!" Now, more than 50 years later, WKBW-TV has broadcast tens of thousands of movies, local programs, and newscasts.

WKBW-TV began as an extension of the popular WKBW radio 1520AM, now WWKB. The station began under the direction and ownership of the late Dr. Clinton H. Churchill. In fact, the original building used to be a tabernacle, which is key to what WKBW stands for: "Well Known Bible Witness." WKBW-TV signed on and continues as one of the top ABC affiliates in the country.

Through the years, WKBW-TV changed ownership and location. In 1960, Capital Cities Communications purchased the station. It became a cornerstone for a company that would later acquire the ABC television network before selling that to the Walt Disney Company. In 1978, the station moved from Main Street to the current facility near Buffalo's waterfront, at 7 Broadcast Plaza (Church and South Elmwood Sts.). Even though the present building is 30 years old, it still stands as a modern fixture in the city landscape with silver reflective panels.
