Rogers Building (Canada)

Rogers Building (Canada)

The Rogers Building, located in Toronto, Canada, is the corporate head office of Canadian media conglomerate Rogers Communications, as well as the home of most, but not all, of the company's Toronto operations.

Located at 777 Jarvis Street, the campus occupies almost all of the block bounded by Jarvis, Bloor, Huntley and Isabella Streets. Mount Pleasant Road divides the northwest corner of the block from the remainder of the site, but Rogers occupies separate buildings on both sides of Mount Pleasant which are connected by above-ground walkways.

The company's cable television and magazine publishing operations, as well as its local radio stations, operate from the building. Rogers Sportsnet is the latest addition to the complex, launching their new studios on April 30, 2008.

Rogers' Omni Television stations CFMT-TV and CJMT-TV in the city, are based at the CFMT Building, the headquarters of Rogers Media near Toronto's waterfront, along with The Biography Channel Canada, G4techTV Canada and OLN. CITY-TV is temporarily based at CTVglobemedia's 299 Queen Street West. The company's local Toronto television stations as well as its sports radio station CJCL are expected to move to 35 Dundas Street East by March 2009.

All other Rogers-owned radio stations will remain at the Rogers Building.

The Shopping Channel is based at a separate facility in Mississauga, Ontario.

Rogers acquired various parts of the block over time as expansion of the facility was planned and executed. Part of the facility's parking garage now occupies the location once used by the original studios of "100 Huntley Street". The Rogers building was originally built as the new head office of the now defunct Confederation Life Insurance Company, which became insolvent in 1994.
