The New York City Human Resources Administration[the City agency that I retired from after 34 years as a sparky],leased two floors of the Verizon building at 1976 Grand Concourse,Bronx,N.Y.This space had been Verizon administative space that was surplus since the late 80's.I believe that the other 6 floors still contain switching equipment. My agency also took six out of the 12 vacant floors of the former verizon building on Hillside ave. in Queens N.Y. In downtown Brooklyn N.Y.,a large Verizon building was completely emptied and turned into condominiums.The name appropriately , is' Bell Tel Lofts.'
