>From Newsday: “The 60,000-square-foot Hauppauge satellite facility was built in 1983 for $14 million and was considered state-of-the-art at the time. A Newsday story at the time said the site would transmit movies, sports and entertainment specials to 3,600 cable systems in mainland United States, and to Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. It also was expected to house program origination operations that were relocated from a Manhattan studio. An HBO executive said at the time that the new location would allow HBO to gain access to satellites in addition to the ones owned and operated by RCA. Long Island, another executive said, would also provide "easy access" to the main office in Manhattan and to a talented workforce. ”
