I liked the original 1920 ?ATT buidling  better with just up from Trinity Church ; huge polished Tenesse marble floor and supported by those interior marble collums  where they make all those tv commercials ,upstairs still had those panel of rooms where all the switchboard operators used to sit  when you would just pick up the lead based phone  and say  Penslylvania 6 -5000......or Plaza ,or Mulberry or some such .
Here in the center of the universe there are people who remember the first phones and the line at the general store on a saturday to use it ; they also remember the first  real bathrooms besides the two holer complete with corn pones   but thats a nutter story  Py
