It is equipped with elevators, mail and telegram chutes, telegraph stations, pneumatic tubes and telephone exchange, including more than 500 instruments, and a restaurant. The offices require about 96,000 square feet in the office building, and an additional 28,000 square feet in an adjoining building.
