Over the ensuing years since the AT&T operations there closed, the poles and metal antennas remained mostly upright, but sometimes - usually during severe nor'easters and hurricanes - some of the equipment would be pulled down by the battering winds. A two-story reddish-orange brick, bunkerlike building - now derelict with broken windows and graffiti - once housed delicate equipment and offices for the site, but now only adds to the bleak look of the place. The site is protected behind a padlocked, chain-link fence.
