Update on statue on top

[edit]

When AT&T moved to Madison Ave, the statue Spirit of Communication was in the lobby there. Legend has it that his genitals were overly apparent when viewed from near his feet, not hundreds of feet below and a golden fig leaf was added. The statue was then moved with AT&T to its next HQ in Basking Ridge, NJ where it was outside again, but not on the building. Presumably the statue is now at ATT HQ in Dallas.

I have no citations for this info and thus am not adding it to the wiki, but perhaps someone else does. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mjmarcus (talkcontribs) 12:53, 16 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
