Monopole 2640496
Near Anchorage, Alaska · Anchorage Municipality
Overview
ASR 2640496 is a monopole registered about 32 km (20 mi) from Anchorage, AK. It stands 21 m (69 ft) above ground level.
Within its county it ranks 231st out of 325 registered structures by overall height.
Vertical Bridge S3 Assets, LLC holds the registration. Tower companies like this one lease space on their structures to multiple carriers, so the registered owner does not tell you which networks operate here.
At 21 m, the radio horizon for an antenna at the top of this structure works out to roughly 19 km (11.7 mi). That is a geometric limit for flat, unobstructed terrain — real coverage depends on transmit power, frequency, terrain and what is in the way.
This is a dense cluster: 147 other registered structures fall within 5 km, the closest just 440 m to the W.
The site lies 32 km (20 mi) outside Anchorage, which is characteristic of structures placed for terrain and line of sight rather than proximity to population.

About this record
A single tubular shaft. Cheaper to permit in built-up areas because it takes little ground space and reads as less industrial than lattice.
Source data is the FCC ASR record for structure 2640496, which gives a construction date of 2004. Registrations are updated when a structure changes, so figures reflect the most recent filing rather than continuous monitoring.
"Owner" is the entity that registered the structure, usually a tower company such as American Tower or Crown Castle. It does not indicate which carriers operate equipment on the structure.
