Rogers Communications Centre

The Rogers Communications Centre (RCC) is a building on the campus of Toronto Metropolitan University. It is home to the Creative School (formerly the Faculty of Communication and Design) and its departments, including the RTA School of Media. Completed in 1992, it is located at 80 Gould Street in downtown Toronto, Canada.

The RCC is home to 3 high-definition television studios, as well as multiple audio recording and video editing suites. The building is home to the Allan Slaight Radio Institute. The building is also home to the newsrooms for The Eyeopener and On the Record, the university's two student-run newspapers.

In November 2018, the Creative School opened a new Creative Research Centre, known as the Catalyst, on the 2nd floor of the building.

The building is not directly sponsored by Rogers Communications, although its naming is the result of a personal $12.5 million contribution to the university by that company's longtime owner, Ted Rogers, and his wife Loretta in honour of Ted's father, communications pioneer Edward S. Rogers, Sr.

The building is connected to Kerr Hall South and East via a pedestrian bridge over Church Street, connecting the second floors of both buildings.
