    @greem@cyberplace.social I was sad when they removed the antennas from the Post Office Tower (which I understand is being refurbished into a hotel).

      @mattblaze@federate.social Apparently so.

      It’s a difficult building to get rid of, because the foundation for the tower itself are intertwined with the former telephone exchange beneath it - which is now an incredibly important fibre interchange point.

      I was lucky enough to go up there in 2004 (or 2005) for a presentation lunch from Cisco. It’s fascinating inside.
