The Line, Modern telephone exchange skyscraper in Tribeca, Manhattan, United States.

The Line building stands 550 feet tall on Church Street, with a gray granite exterior and no windows across its 29 floors.

AT&T constructed the facility in 1974 as part of its Long Lines Department to house telecommunications equipment and switching systems.

The structure represents Brutalist architecture principles through its monolithic form, exposed materials, and emphasis on functional design elements.

Each floor measures 18 feet in height and supports weights of 300 pounds per square foot to accommodate heavy telecommunications equipment.

The building maintains independent water and power systems, enabling it to operate autonomously for two weeks during emergencies.

GPS coordinates: 35.20910,-80.86200
