Ratings Say Bonneville Format Change Right Move
The Spring radio ratings for Chicago show strong ratings for Bonneville International's new radio station, WDRV, indicating that Bonneville's critics may have been wrong about the station's change of format from classical to classic hits. The ratings gave WDRV, "The Drive," a 2.2 percent share of listeners, up from 1.3 percent when the station was known as WNIB last Winter. They also show that WDRV didn't take listeners away from its sister station, WLUP.

Property Reserve Selling Atlanta Office Complex
Property Reserve, Inc., the real estate arm of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, is selling a major office park it purchased in 1988. Broker CB Richard Ellis is marketing the Central Perimeter project, a 14-building, 293,000-square-foot office complex located near Concourse on Hammond Drive in Atlanta that Property Reserve apparently owns as an investment. Industry experts say the complex, which is 80-percent occupied, could fetch $104 per square foot, or about $30 million. Property Reserve purchased the office complex for $25 million in 1988.
