Reconnecting 170,000 Phone Customers in NYC After a Major Fire - AT&T Archives
See more from the AT&T Archives at http://techchannel.att.com/archives
Introduction by George Kupczak of the AT&T Archives and History Center
The morning of February 27, 1975 brought a fire in the telephone building at 204 Second Avenue, at East 13th Street. The building housed the Main Distribution Frame that served customers in lower Manhattan and Brooklyn--the mainframe was destroyed, disconnecting tens of thousands of customers, and switching equipment was melted or damaged by smoke. The fire took out approximately 170,000 lines. The Bell System immediately went into company-wide action, restoring service within about 2 weeks, and brought rolling phone trucks to lower manhattan to provide at least some service to residents.
The filmmakers were quick on the scene and started rolling ...

Introduction by George Kupczak of the AT&T Archives and History Center
"The Incredible Machine" is a 1968 short showing some of the ways that Bell Laboratories scientists used computers in communications research. Contains sequences of computer-generated movies, photographs, music and speech. The entire score and main title and credits of the film were produced on a computer - which seems like nothing today, as every film and video in modern production makes its way through a machine - but at the time this was radically early for computer graphics and music.
Bell Labs was responsible for a few computer graphics and music firsts:

In this video, we explore the crisis of empty office buildings in both urban and suburban locations. Common solutions include repurposing these structures for mixed use or residential. Recent conversions like the Chicago Tribune Tower have little complications or risk. But newer office structures are much more difficult logistically. Further, many suburban office parks just don’t offer the economic incentive that vibrant urban locations do. We need to be smart about what we do with these buildings and identify all the factors in deciding their future.

SUMMARY
=======
463 West Street is a 13-building complex located on the block between West Street, Washington Street, Bank Street, and Bethune Street in Manhattan, New York. It was originally the home of Bell Telephone Laboratories between 1898 and 1966. For a time, it was the largest industrial research center in the United States. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places and further designated as a National Historic Landmark, as Bell Telephone Laboratories.Many early technological inventions were developed here including automatic telephone panel and crossbar switches, the first experimental talking movies (1923), black-and-white and color TV, video telephones, radar, the vacuum tube, medical equipment, the development of the phonograph record and the first commercial broadcasts, including the first broadcast of a baseball game and the New York Philharmonic with Arturo Toscanini conducting. It also served as the headquarters for the company from 1925 to the early 1960s, after which the headquarters moved to Murray Hill, New Jersey.
The site was also the home for part of the Manhattan Project during World War II. Shortly after the war, the transistor was invented here.
After two years of renovations by Richard Meier, the building was reopened in 1970 as Westbeth Artists Community for low- to middle-income artists. In addition to affordable artist housing, the complex contains a theatre, an art gallery, and a synagogue.
It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1975. The complex was listed a second time on the National Register in 2009, for its high-profile and successful example of adaptive reuse of the property.

TOPES (Telephone Office Planning and Engineering System).
Described as “a modern, efficient aid for space planners and engineers,” TOPES was a time-shared Computer Aided Building Design system (CABD) developed by Bell Labs to be used to plan and design building space for their own telecommunications offices. Using Direct Distance Dialing lines (DDD), it offered interactive graphics teleconferencing which was capable of connecting up to 22 terminals at once. TOPES used FORTRAN IV code and data files; the host computer was housed at Western Electric’s Data Center in Kearny, New Jersey.
This film details multiple features of the service. The five units that TOPES was comprised of – Designing, Planning, News, Data and Archives – are explained and shown one by one as we follow a project through its various stages, including the “TOPES-O-GRAM,” an early form of email.
This detailed presentation of TOPES and its various features gives a view of the computer world as it approached what would prove to be an astonishing era in technology, with changes soon coming faster than anyone anticipated.

The morning of February 27, 1975 brought a fire in the telephone building at 204 Second Avenue, at East 13th Street. The building housed the Main Distribution Frame that served customers in lower Manhattan and Brooklyn--the mainframe was destroyed, disconnecting tens of thousands of customers, and switching equipment was melted or damaged by smoke. The fire took out approximately 170,000 lines. The Bell System immediately went into company-wide action, restoring service within about 2 weeks, and brought rolling phone trucks to lower manhattan to provide at least some service to residents.
The filmmakers were quick on the scene and started rolling cameras to document not just the recovery of the system by the efforts of firemen, Bell executives, and Bell workers, but put lenses on affected customers as well, to tell the full picture in this cinéma-vérité documentary.
The 2nd Ave. disaster was the largest loss of telephone service from fire in United States history until World Trade Center was attacked on September 11, 2001. On that occasion, service was disrupted to approx. 300,000 circuits and 10 cellphone towers.

Introduction by George Kupczak of the AT&T Archives and History Center
"The Incredible Machine" is a 1968 short showing some of the ways that Bell Laboratories scientists used computers in communications research. Contains sequences of computer-generated movies, photographs, music and speech. The entire score and main title and credits of the film were produced on a computer - which seems like nothing today, as every film and video in modern production makes its way through a machine - but at the time this was radically early for computer graphics and music.
Bell Labs was responsible for a few computer graphics and music firsts:
1961: computer performs "Daisy Bell" with music programmed by Max Mathews and speech programmed by John Kelly and Carol Lockbaum. This was later the inspiration for the computer "HAL" singing the song in the movie 2001. Daisy Bell was also the nickname of one of Alexander Graham Bell's daughters.
1962: The first digital computer art was created at Bell Labs by A. Michael Noll.
1963: The first computer graphics film was created by Edward Zajac.
1963: The first computer animation language, BEFLIX, was created by Ken Knowlton.
1966: first
ASCII art, created by Ken Knowlton.
These scientist/artists worked on IBM 704 and 7094 computers in the 1950s and 1960s. They had drastic limitations in terms of computing power and costs, compared to the computers of today.
For example:
IBM 704
The computer these artists and scientists originally worked on in the late 1950s had 192K of RAM, 6mb of memory on tape, cost $200 an hour to use and filled a whole room.
IBM 7094
The earliest computer-generated films, created using an IBM 7094 computer and Stromberg-Carlson 4020 microfilm recorder, cost approximately $500 per minute of output. The 709-series computers were transistorized, and a typical 7094 sold for $3,134,500 in the 1960s.
This film won the CINE Golden Eagle and is in the permanent collection at the Museum of Modern Art in NYC.
An Owen Murphy Production
Artwork and computer graphics by Ken Knowlton
Computer-generated music by Max Mathews
The title sequence was programmed by A. Michael Noll using his four-dimensional animation technique and is perhaps the first use of computer animation for title sequences.
The computer ballet during the end credits by A. Michael Noll
The basilar membrane animation was done by Robert C. Lummis, Man Mohan Sondhi, and A. Michael Noll.

In this video, we explore the crisis of empty office buildings in both urban and suburban locations. Common solutions include repurposing these structures for mixed use or residential. Recent conversions like the Chicago Tribune Tower have little complications or risk. But newer office structures are much more difficult logistically. Further, many suburban office parks just don’t offer the economic incentive that vibrant urban locations do. We need to be smart about what we do with these buildings and identify all the factors in deciding their future.
