KFFV/KVOS - Where are they now!?

Anyone know where operations center for Weigel stations moved? KVOS moved operations down to Seattle about 7-8 years ago into the same facility where KFFV was running. Drove by there today and looks like the stations are gone -- they used to be on 3rd Ave S. very close to Spokane St. Is Weigel running everything out of Chicago or a regional center now? KVOS still has a "license" office in a small strip mall in Bellingham.

FCC public file shows the main studio address as:
26 N. Halsted
Weigel Broadcasting Co.
Chicago,IL 60661

you're no longer required to maintain a local studio
 
I still remember when KVOS was not only an independent, but also still produced NewsView...
And of course, those British Columbia ads were a hoot to watch on an American station.
 
Their old building on Ellis was overhauled as a professional center -- for doctors, technology people, investment consultants, etc. I'm glad they didn't bulldoze the thing … but still sad to see the evolution.
