“The broadcasting property is an acquisition that will be a part of our overall development of the 9000 Broadway property. We do not have any specific plans as of this point in time,” she said.

Ty Tyler, president of Tyler Media, said he didn't know when the radio stations would move and noted that a lease is in effect. OPUBCO continues to lease office space from American Fidelity but plans to relocate downtown in spring 2014, and has a longer-term agreement for occupation of the press plant.

American Fidelity intends to relocate its headquarters from 2000 N Classen.

Gaylord Broadcasting Co. built the radio building in 1976. In 1991, ownership transferred to OPUBCO. Citadel Broadcasting Co. bought the property in 2003 and sold it to The Springhill Group in 2007.
