About the station

Listen to NPR online

WNYC 93.9 FM is New York Public Radio’s flagship news, talk, and culture service. The station combines locally produced reporting and conversation with programs from NPR, American Public Media, PRX, the BBC, and other public-media producers. Listeners can use this page to open the live stream and review the verified program information available for the station.

WNYC serves the New York metropolitan area on 93.9 FM and 820 AM. New York Public Radio operates a unified lineup across the two signals, so the AM frequency gives listeners another terrestrial way to follow the same core service. Local programs and newsroom coverage focus on New York City and the surrounding region.

The station operates from the Jerome L. Greene Performance Space and New York Public Radio offices at 160 Varick Street in Manhattan. WNYC and classical station WQXR are part of the same nonprofit public-media organization.

How we verify NPR

Last verified
Our verification method

We match the call sign, licensed frequency, city of license, and facility identity against FCC data. We then compare the station name, format, schedule, and related signals with the station’s official website and test the listed stream in a browser-compatible player. Regional restrictions, breaking news, and live sports can still change availability or programming.
