Woodberry also houses the facilities for four of Baltimore's commercial television stations, and because of its altitude, it also is the site of two large broadcasting masts. This area is also known as Television Hill (or simply TV Hill).
The highest land point in Baltimore, TV Hill is the transmitting site for four of the city's television stations and two radio stations. Three of the TV outlets, WMAR-TV (channel 2), WBAL-TV (channel 11), and WJZ-TV (channel 13)–along with radio stations WIYY (97.9 FM) and WZFT (104.3 FM)–transmit from a red-colored, tri-mast candelabra tower, which stands 997 feet (304 meters) above ground level.
