Tegna’s KHOU is still without a permanent studio, but they do have a new satellite studio to work out of.

As you know, the station was forced to evacuate their old studio during Hurricane Harvey and has been doing the newscasts from the public TV station ever since.

But, on Friday, KHOU debut their Avenida Studio in downtown Houston.

The new satellite studio gets its name from the fact it's located inside the George R. Brown Convention Center and overlooking the newly minted Avenida Houston district.

The KHOU Avenida Studio is a roughly 780-square-feet expansion studio the Houston CBS affiliate announced last December. It's small and only holds around eight or nine people according to Craig's Facebook Live from the scene.

In a KHOU announcement about the new studio from 2017, the station said the new studio would be used several times a week on its newscasts, Great Day Houston and other KHOU-produced programming and specials.

The new KHOU main studios will be 5718 Westheimer coming later this year.
