Most Telco infrastructure is, in fact, in specially designed windowless buildings which used to come in several standard designs. Here in New York City, there is one major exception to this -- 60 Hudson which is a major intercarrier locus is the old western union building. However, thats (as I said) unusual -- most of the switching centers in New York are windowless skyscrapers with concrete outside walls. Old AT&T had *very* strict standards on the construction and setting of these buildings -- the so-called NEBS standards, I remember. Engineering and Ops in the Bell System should have a chapter on it. Perry - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
