In fact, it's tough to say what the CO will look like 10 years from now." Some challenges are "far higher power densities, heat dissipation requirements and power feeds than we ever built those locations for in the past," said Pieter Poll, chief technology officer for Qwest Communications.

Oak Tower
Oak Tower, also called the Bell Telephone Building, is a 28-story skyscraper in Downtown Kansas City, Missouri. Hoit, Price & Barnes, a local firm that conceived many of Kansas City's landmark structures, designed the building in association with I.R. Timlin as the headquarters of the Bell Telephone Co.'s newly consolidated Southwestern System. The ground was broken at Eleventh and Oak Streets in 1917, but due to shortages of manpower and materials during the First World War, construction was delayed and was not completed until 1920. The new building served as Southwestern Bell's general headquarters for only a year before the company moved its main office to St. Louis. Thereafter the tower served as the headquarters of Southwestern Bell's operations in Missouri. The tower was originally 14 stories (185 feet), without any setbacks, but the fast-growing telephone company soon required more space. An addition completed in 1929 doubled the tower's height and made it the tallest b ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
