The 1998 implementation of a federally mandated conversion of all television signals in the U.S. to digital broadcasting created a shortage of broadcast tower space. Seizing the opportunity and taking advantage of its expertise in real estate market selection, entitlement, and capital resources, Richland entered the communications and broadcast tower industry, adding key personnel experienced in broadcast transmission and project management, specifically in towers.

Today Richland Towers leases space on communications towers that it designs, builds, and manages for the following industries:
