End of the Line for Bell Labs, Birthplace of the Cellphone?
Story by Margaret Foster / Aug. 2, 2006
The Eero Saarinen-designed New Jersey laboratory where the cell phone,
laser, and transistor were invented will likely be torn down for a new
office park.
Built between 1957 and 1962, the two-million-square-foot Bell Labs in
Holmdel, N.J., is one of the largest office buildings in the country,
once housing almost 6,000 people.
