WTVR TV Tower, Broadcasting tower in Richmond, Virginia, US

The WTVR TV Tower is a lattice broadcasting structure located in the Museum District of Richmond, Virginia. It functions as a transmission facility for media stations serving the local region.

This tower was completed in 1953 during the postwar expansion of broadcast infrastructure across America. It marked a significant moment in Richmond's development as a media hub.

The tower influenced local media representation as WTVR-TV incorporated its silhouette into news broadcasts throughout the 1980s and early 1990s.

The structure is visible from public streets in the Museum District where you can view it from various angles. Access to the tower itself is restricted, but its distinctive silhouette can be appreciated from surrounding areas.

The Tower Building across the street, named after this structure, received recognition on the National Register of Historic Places.
