License History
Construction
This is a hardened above-ground site. The tower is not of the AT&T modular type, perhaps because of it's unusually tall height. It's more of a typical self-supporting lattice tower, with waveguides originally mounted on the sides rather than corners. An “X” shaped catwalk provided access to the feed end of the horns, and a standard square platform at the top held them. There are several catwalks at different levels and a ladder up one corner for access, rather than the stairs seen on shorter AT&T towers. This must have been a pretty busy tower even when originally built, based on the catwalks, so I suspect that the list of routes here (and in other sources like the Long Lines Google map) is incomplete.
Unfortunately, the horns are no longer present.
