Houses a Nortel DMS100 switch and serves the St. Charles county seat. The office is the toll collection center for all traffic from Northeast Missouri. It is built on a heavily sloped street so that from one view it appears to be a 4 story building but from the other corner, only a hundred yards north, it appears to be a 3 story building. Saint Charles was the first capitol city of the state of Missouri being displaced by Jefferson City after the capitol building there was finished.

Pond

Nokia/Alcatel/Lucent 5ESS Remote

273, 405, 422, 458 (includes MCA)

Also serves Pond MCA. It houses an RSM hosted by the Chesterfield 5ESS. This office is just west of Manchester but is extremely difficult to find. This is the front entrance of the building but it does not face the road it is on, from the road all you see is a driveway to largish building which stands with its back to you. The only giveaway is an occasional AT&T truck parked in the lot in front of the office. I have never seen another AT&T CO that remotely resembles it.

It is situated in West St. Louis county and houses a 5ESS switch. There are only a few 5ESS Optical Remote Modules which have ever been “rehomed”, on of them is now hosted in this office. When ISDN service was first turned up in St. Louis the VP of Lucent in this location needed to have ISDN service so he could interact with the president & CEO of SWBT over ISDN lines so the ORM at that site was hosted by the Chesterfield 5ESS switch. Only Lucent lines were to be assigned to that ORM but, over time, residential and business customers in adjoining properties got assigned to it. When the building had to be demolished for a shopping center the remote had to be rehomed on the nearest 5ESS in the rate center boundaries and that is Manchester.

Also serves House Springs MCA (636-671). This houses an RSM which is hosted by the Maxville 5ESS. It should have been hosted by the Fenton 5ESS but that switch was not ready in time to host this replacement for the old Step by Step switch. This was an old farm agency building for the early Southwestern Bell Telephone Company. It was an old farm house in which the wife and children worked for SWBT as operators on a manual switch board until automatic dialing via Step by Step was invented. The building has no indoor plumbing, hence the portable toilet out front. When the RSM was placed in the 1980s, SWBT had to dig a basement under the CO for the power plant.

Nokia/Alcatel/Lucent 5ESS Host

247, 519, 530, 532, 536-7, 720, 730, 733, 735-7

This office was built in the middle of an empty field in the 1990 time frame. It was a single floor structure and it was built specifically to house the first 5ESS ISDN switch in Southwestern Bell. It provided ISDN services to the Advanced Technology lab of SBC and to the AT&T Network Systems (forerunner of Lucent) building at 1111 Woodsmill Road. Since that time much has been built around this office and, when it became necessary to add a second floor the city of “Town & Country” required a ton of aesthetic work to make the office fit into the residential setting. So they put on a fancy tin roof and a wall on the right side of the building which hides the emergency AC generator located there.
