FTV doesn't own their own building, they only rent some floors in this building in Taipei City.

Formosa TV is a television station based in Taipei, Taiwan. Established on March 27, 1996, FTV began broadcasting on June 11, 1997.

The station was wholly owned and operated by the Democratic Progressive Party.[1] Due to this, its news programs are often of a Pan-Green perspective. Because of the location of its headquarters, which is in an area where Taiwanese-speakers are populous, it also earned the reputation for being the first station in Taiwan to use that tongue in a majority of its programs, especially on their prime time newscasts.

On May 24, 2004, FTV was among the first free-to-air channels on Taiwan to switch from terrestrial analogue signal to digital television.[2]

Broadcasting hours on Formosa TV is from 6:00 AM to 1:00 AM.
