Lattice tower 123477
Atlanta, Georgia · Fulton County
Overview
Registered with the FCC as structure 123477, this lattice tower about 8.8 km (5.5 mi) from Atlanta, GA was built in 1995 and rises 73 m (238 ft) from the ground.
The median lattice tower in Georgia is 79 m tall across 1,091 registrations, so this one sits 8.6% below the typical height for its type.
American Towers 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.
Using the standard radio-horizon formula, an antenna at 73 m has a theoretical sightline of 35 km (21.8 mi). Terrain and obstructions reduce this in practice, often substantially.
This is a dense cluster: 32 other registered structures fall within 5 km, the closest just 579 m to the SW.
Ranked 71st by height among the 238 registered structures in Atlanta, GA, it sits within a network of sites that between them cover the surrounding area.

About this record
An open steel framework that carries heavy antenna loads with less material than a solid pole. Common for broadcast and multi-tenant wireless sites.
All measurements shown are taken from FCC registration 123477. Height is the overall height above ground including any antennas and lightning rod, which is why it can exceed the height of the supporting structure alone.
"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.
