Office has undergone several expansions, the last being in the 1970s (hence
the ugly exterior). None of the expansions have been able to handle the
explosive development in the area. As it is standing Bell policy to never build
any new central offices under almost any circumstances this office has close a
good 40+ remote terminals of varying age and quality extending its service
foot print. Even with the numerous remote terminals, some of which have
finally been upgraded for DSL service, this office suffers copper pair
shortages just to provide regular dialtone service.
At the time of this "crisis" there was only one staff CO tech who has long since retired.
