New Antenna for WFUV

I was watching New York 1 news on Sunday night and saw the story about the new WFUV antenna being construction on top of Montefiore Hospital in the Bronx. This will be the end of a long ordeal for Fordham and WFUV. I don't have to go through the entire story. Dr. Jennings said that the potential listeners to WFUV will double. The antenna will be operational in January

I can see the antenna out of my terrace in Riverdale. Actually I can see BOTH antennas since the original one in Fordham University hasn't been dismantled yet. It's on top of the residence on Wayne Avenue (along Gun Hill Road), 28 stories up. I think Fordham made out better with this versus the original antenna since it's on the highest structure in the north central section of The Bronx. They can definitely grab a larger audience with it.

Now they can "smell the roses" again over at the Botanical Gardens.

Is the new antenna on a self-supporter, guyed-tower, or not visible from the street?
