The street outside WHAS-TV's headquarters is now named for one of the station's best-known reporters.
During a ceremony on the station's 6 p.m. broadcast yesterday, signs marking Chuck Olmstead Way were unveiled on a stretch of Armory Place. Olmstead died on March 10 at age 60 after suffering a brain aneurysm.
The blue signs feature a picture of the reporter, who worked for the station for 34 years, wearing one of his signature brown leather coats and bearing the inscription: "for his service to WHAS-TV and the people of Louisville 1975-2009".
