I can only imagine Verizon has lost many CO's just within the World Trade
Center alone. I know from my CLEC days that it's not all that uncommon to
be disqualified for certain services because of cable distance. This was
especially frustrating for New York businesses, knowing the local CO was in
the basement of the very building their offices were located.
