KTHS Radio Building

The KTHS Radio Building was the name given to the former Blass Department Store standing at 313 Main Street in Little Rock, Arkansas. The building became the headquarters of KTHS in June 1952 after moving from 135 Benton Street in Hot Springs. The radio station's studios were located on the fifth floor of the building, and the transmitter in Wrightsville. The radio station went on the air on March 24, 1953. The station soon dropped its former affiliation with ABC Radio and became an affiliate of the CBS Radio Network.

The KTHS Radio Building was eventually replaced by a new radio and television studio at the intersection of Eighth and Isard streets, which was dedicated on May 15, 1956.
