I go to school in New York City and am writing a paper comparing two
(previously) AT&T buildings. The buildings are as follows:

	1) 195 Broadway - the old AT&T building
	and
	2) Madison & 65/6th street - the newer AT&T Building (now Sony) 

I am interested in what people know about these buildings, especially
if there is any communicative aspects in the buildings. It would be
interested to know if AT&T made a point of trying to effect
communications in either the exterior design or interior design of
either building. Also of interest is if there is any communicative
difference between the two buildings. I have seen comments refering to
the Bell Labs building(s) at Murray Hill in New Jersey being designed
with communications in mind. I thus was wondering if this idea was
true of either of these two headquarters.


Thank you,
