Fox News Channel unveiled plans Wednesday for a cutting-edge, centralized newsroom designed to increase collaboration across its news, digital and programming teams.
The open, state-of-the-art newsroom will be housed on the second floor of Fox’s Midtown headquarters on Sixth Avenue.
It also will replace the basement location FNC has used since its launch in October 1996.
Construction is set begin on July 1 and to be completed in four phases, with broadcasting in the new site expected to start in early 2018.
“When we met with the designers, we relayed the need to create a cohesive space that reflected a modern newsroom in this new era of information gathering,” said Suzanne Scott, FNC’s president of programming.
FNC, the No. 1 network in US cable, has been the most-watched television news channel for 15 years.
Twenty-First Century Fox is the sister company of News Corp., which owns The Post.
