If anyone needs and kind of connectivity between the following buildings:

Likewise, if anyone who needs temporary dark fiber between 60 Hudson and 111 8th, I've identified some MFN strands. And, PAIX is ready to provide temporary housing at 111 8th for any servers or nodes dispossessed by the WTC attack.

I expect all LEC, CLECs, wireline, wireless, carrier, non-carrier, traditional, next-generation, tier 1, tier 2, etc are willing and working to relocate and re-route anyone with service, systems, etc disrupted or destroyed by Tuesday's attacks. The FCC has told carriers "Do anything you can do to help." I would apply the same statement to non-regulated ISPs and alternative communication providers. If you need special assistance in getting circuits re-routed, or installed in a new location, talk to your provider. Consider many of the alternative providers, which had a lot of excess capacity before Tuesday's attack. For example, there are reports of several former dot-COM property management companies offering space in buildings previously occupied by dot-COM companies which went out of business earlier this summer.
