    Wait, I'd assumed you'd found several already. This is your first?!

    My grandfather used to build those around the southwest. I've climbed a few of them.

    I've only seen them in reports on TW.

    I was very tempted to climb it.

    Huh, learn something new every day.

    Shout if you're curious for more. I've been to two, so I know where at least one more is... or maybe two, depending on that first one, for you!

    Awesome! I've always loved the history of the ATT long lines. There is a hub in San Diego that I always enjoy seeing. In the photo are actually two buildings adjacent to each other, where the building to the north one was the old ATT Long distance company, and on the right a Pacific Bell one of the original regional bells. Now of course all consolidated again.

    No shit, I never knew what those were. We've got one on the hill behind our house. I always assumed it was leftover military infrastructure. TIL. Thanks Tacomaworld! ;)

    One of these:

    (not my photo, though there is probably one in the basement somewhere)

    And there is no significance to this particular phone at all. Nope... not at all...
