Demolition of WIEL

(staff photo)

July of 2017 the owners of the former WIEL studios at 406 S. Mulberry had the building razed for reasons we are not privy to. The photo above was taken July 10. Many memories went down with this location, but not from our hearts...evident in the following responses:

 Oh no....it was old...but it was old because history was holding up the walls-Ross Becker

I am thankful that those walls can't talk-Jay (Jerry) Dyer

I remember when it was built-Kenny Tabb

I worked in that building three separate times on WIEL twice & WKMO-Jeffrey Goodrich

There were a lot of great people associated with WIEL !! I remember when Dee Huddleston
called Little League ball games from the old ball park-Dale Ford

My Dad ( Dick Curtis) called many Little League Games from that ball park!! Just really sad...I have some very special memories!-Deanna Hopkins

I certainly remember Dick...he also called all of the E'town Panthers basketball games
-Dale Ford

Spent a lot of time there. Yup, a sad day-Mark Travis

That's pretty much where it all started for me-Kenneth Wortham

Louisville Scene mentions former WIEL jock Paul Edwards, but Bob Cline also worked sales at WIEL in 1991! Bob & Paul Edwards ALSO did stints at WSAC.
