As of today, Feb 16, 2010, the Wikipedia article on the BBC studios says, as well as linking to this article, the following:

The studios have been under regular threat of closure by BBC management: the building is in need of constant maintenance and due to its location in a residential area there are limits to the hours of operation and access. In July 2007 the BBC announced that the studios were "wholly unsuitable for the 21st century", and it was reported that it would be sold to property developers as part of cost-cutting measures.[1] However, no viable alternatives have been found to house Maida Vale's various activities, and as of October 2009 the studios are still in constant use.

Although the acoustic of studio 1, is not the finest, the Maida Vale site includes at least 4 other studios. Studio 2, the second largest, has been partially mothballed for several years now – only being used for choir rehearsals despite being an extremely good acoustic space.

Unfortunately studio 1 underwent extensive renovation comparatively recently, which included the installation of a new Studer digital console (costing in the region of £500 000) in the newly refurbished control room.
