CBC Museum

A bit limited (tends to focus on children’s shows and the early days; don’t expect anything related to the long-​running Hockey Night in Canada),. but it’s free, and a nice bit of nostalgia so if you’re in the area you might as well stop in. As another reviewer noted, don’t overlook the somewhat hidden second exhibit down the escalator.
I’m not sure what it’s called, but both times I’ve been in the building, I’ve passed books for sale in the lobby. Not part of the museum per se but a decent (for a lobby) selection at low prices. If I ever figure out the name for the book area I’ll give that 4 stars.

«Museum» is a bit of a misnomer. Don’t expect to spend the entire afternoon here as it’s about the size of a modest museum exhibit.
The exhibits and artifacts are marvelous. Plenty of old legacy CBC radio gear and some television set pieces, props and costumes as well. As a broadcasting professional I take an interest in this kind of stuff and don’t regret making the trip for a second, even though the museum was much smaller than I expected. if you enter the building by the Hockey Night scene set in the lobby, take a right down a staircase (by the awards case) and maybe down another there’s another exhibit around that area, can’t remember more specifics than that. Glad I stumbled upon it while wandering aimlessly around the ground floor because it contains some interesting old pictures from the production side, talent jackets and other general artifacts of obsolete analog production. The other side of the exhibit was an equipment storage room with prominent items displayed and explained (ancient film projectors, prompters, titling rollers, I love that crap.)
I was a little disappointed that there were no public studio tours available, I asked the guard since I allotted way too much time in my day for the size of this place. Either way, good for the CBC for maintaining this so the public may visit and enjoy. I’ll find and post some pictures eventually.
