It should come as no surprise the the CNNi, CNN US, CNN Sport, and CNN Weather on-air teams would have staggered moves (Hudson Yards and the London ran the same way).
a) Studio 4 is still in use for Victor Blackwell and thus not closed or dismantled
b) their permanent home in Techwood is for some reason still not ready despite it already being nearly 10 months since Studio 7 has been closed for rehashing to make up components of the new Techwood studio.
It does feel like CNN closed Studio 7 early. Either the construction of the new studio space fell behind, they ran into issues with relocating the set and needed more time or parts, or they scrapped the idea to plop Studio 7 in Techwood and are building a different set instead.
