Remember Cen Louie well from N-5/N-8 days after CG-5 moved to NYC and killed the Chicago Field Shop and before the sale to NEP. Have now been at NEP/NCP for almost 8 years, moving over after the sale of SS-8 to Jerry Springer/Maury Povich in 2009.

As NBC transitions out of Burbank for good (with the exception of Leno in studio 11), rare photos have been surfacing of the construction, the equipment and most importantly, the people. Probably as you did, we fed our families and put kids through college, thanks in part to 3000 West Alameda Ave. So there is a soft spot in the hearts of many for the good fortune to have worked there it it's peak.<br><br><br>David Crosthwait<br>DC Video<br><br>3071 North Lima St.<br>Burbank, CA. 91504<br>818-563-1073<br>818-563-1177 (fax)<br>818-285-9942 (cell)<br><br>david@dcvideo.com<br>www.dcvideo.com<br><br>Follow DC Video on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dcvideo<br><br><br><br>On Nov 13, 2012, at 10:56 AM, Dennis Degan wrote:<br><br>> <br>> <br>> On Nov 13, 2012, at 12:41 AM, David Crosthwait wrote:<br>> <br>> > Nice shots of N3.
