About 811 Tenth Avenue
Carrying the alternate name AT&T Switching Center, 811 Tenth Avenue is a skyscraper of 370 feet (110 m) in the Hell's Kitchen area of Manhattan, New York City. Kahn & Jacobs designed it, and it was completed in 1964. It takes up the full block on the western side of 10th Avenue between West 53rd and 54th Streets.
The building has no windows and was designed to withstand a nuclear blast. AT&T built it to house telephone switching equipment. A 1975 article in the New York Times said it came first among several windowless buildings the company put up in Manhattan, and that it drew considerable controversy. AT&T upgraded the facility in 2000 from a "hardened Telco data center" into an "AT&T Internet Data Center".
