Windsor's tallest building, the Victoria Park Place apartment buildings were built in 1979. They currently house the windsor repeater transmitter for A Windsor (CHWI-DT-60 on channel 26, formerly 60) on their roof. Until 1994, there was a small news bureau for Kitchener's CKCO-TV (CTV), which closed shortly after CHWI-TV signed on in October of 1993.

Before the Victoria Park Place was built, the Norton Palmer Hotel (built in 1927, expanded in 1929, detonated in 1975) occupied this site.

Environment Canada also maintains a UHF transmitter (VAZ826) at 407.2875 MHz atop the Victoria Park Place.
