The Daily Gazette, of Schenectady, New York, is in talks to sell its building to the Capital District Transportation Authority, the Gazette reports.   

The decision to consider a sale is driven, in part, by the relocation of the paper's printing operations to Springfield, Mass. In addition, only around 40 employees are now in the building on a given day following the pandemic, compared to a total staff of 115 people. 

The negotiations could lead to Gazette employees still being allowed to work there.  

A sale reportedly would allow the Gazette to better focus on providing quality local journalism, the paper says.
