WCBS-FM

WCBS-FM is a CBS-owned radio station in New York City, offering a Classic Hits format spanning from 1964 to 1995. The station's studios are in the combined CBS Radio facility in the Hudson Square neighborhood of Manhattan, and its transmitter is located on the Empire State Building. WCBS-FM was one of the first notable oldies stations in the country, with the format dating back to July 7, 1972. Between June 3, 2005, and July 12, 2007, the station aired the automated adult hits format "Jack FM". The new programming was unsuccessful, and WCBS-FM switched back to personality-driven classic hits and oldies format, which features a broader playlist concentrating on music from 1964 to 1989, but unlike other classic hits stations, they also played selected hits from before 1964. In the fall of 2014, the station dropped the pre-1964 oldies altogether and also dropped many of the songs from the 1960s cutting the amount down to one to two per hour.
