Turner network question

Yes, I know they're all Time-Warner/AOL properties now, but do all the Turner networks originate from the CNN Center in downtown Atlanta? Where do TNT and TCM and the Cartoon Network and the others have their TOC's these days?

They have a recently built complex boarding the Connecter in downtown. You can't miss it, but it's easier to see if you are traveling north on the connector through downtown, just north of North Ave I believe. I get the streets mixed up in that area.

Adult Swim (Cartoon Network/Late Night) often mentions they're on Williams Street.
 
CNN of course has its own center. A lot of Turner's programming is produced elsewhere, but the actual offices and on-air departments of networks like TBS, TNT and Cartoon Network are on the Techwood Drive/10th Street corner right before the downtown connector splits. All the logos are on the building.

They are. They're in the building on Williams Street that has "TBS" written on it. So is all of Turner's internet facilities. It's between 10th and.....I believe 12th street. It's hard to miss if you're driving down the road.

That building looks run down compared to the rest, so I didn't think they had much there.

Also, the WTBS transmitter is located in an otherwise abandoned building on West Peachtree.

It used to be the facility for WTCG/WTBS before building the new campus when Turner expanded into cable television. On the inside it's mostly empty rooms and one other broadcast design studio that rents space in it, but there's some renovating going on. It's also used for storage and library purposes.
