I called in a stack of trouble tickets a while ago. One upside is that VZ is routing calls out of the horrid NYC call center and out to Albany, Pittsburgh, and LI. Very, very friendly and helpful people taking down trouble tickets. All the circuits I called in, while homed out of the Broad Street CO, were routed through the West St CO. The gentleman I spoke with said the building had structural damage, no power, and that some of the breeches to the structure opened up into equipment rooms. To repair the circuits, he said they will be re-engineered. The folks that do that were apparently housed in the WTC. There was no ETR on any of the lines.
