Former WSLC AM radio towers come down in Salem

SALEM, Va. (WDBJ) – Five towers that were part of the Salem skyline and the local radio landscape for more than 60 years came down Tuesday.

They were located on property where the studios of 610 AM WSLC were located for decades.

WSLC went silent last October, but in the 1960s it was a country music powerhouse here in the Roanoke Valley.

All five towers came down on Tuesday, making way for new development on the 39-acre site.
