COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) — The home of former alternative radio station CD 92.9, which left the FM airwaves at the beginning of February, is now up for sale.

Real estate agent Doug Tenenbaum, of Columbus, confirmed to NBC4 that he made a listing on Tuesday for the building at 1036 S. Front St. at the owner’s request. Randy Malloy operated CD 92.9 and owns WWCD, Ltd. as well as the LLC that owns the building. Not only did he provide audio for the FM frequency licensed to other radio companies through the space, but he also ran a bar out of it.

Tenenbaum said he anticipated developers would be interested in the CD 92.9 property, since the half-acre space is currently zoned in a way that would allow a new building or add-on to be constructed up to six stories high. However, the real estate agent mentioned that a buyer could get it with the intention of running a new radio station or bar out of it as well.

Franklin County Auditor records showed Malloy’s Swiss Family Homes, LLC acquired the building in 2013 for $400,000. It hosted multiple iterations of his radio station that last aired on 92.9 FM, including other frequencies 102.5 and 101.1. Since leaving terrestrial radio, Malloy told listeners his team would switch entirely to internet streaming as WWCD Radio.

Since Malloy’s WWCD, Ltd. stopped providing audio to 92.9 FM, frequency licensees Delmar Media and ICS Communications have since spun up their own radio station on it. Called 93X, the station promised to continue airing alternative music as well as highlighting local artists.
