Old AT&T Long Lines microwave tower

Описание к видео Old AT&T Long Lines microwave tower

When AT&T built the first microwave relay from New York City to Chicago in the late 1940s for long-distance telephone service, this tower was the first in line after New York. It may not be the original structure, but it is the original site and uses the same kind of large microwave horns, which likely have not been in active use since the 1980s. Due to its ideal hilltop location, the structure likely serves today as a cell phone tower. Its access road has also been turned into a housind development, called Tower Road.
