Project Background

Blending Technology with Tradition: Stealth Bell Tower in Pittsford
The Verizon Wireless Stealth Bell Tower project highlights how modern telecommunications infrastructure can be integrated into a historic village setting with minimal visual impact. Located in Pittsford, NY, this 80-foot wireless facility was designed to deliver enhanced cellular coverage while respecting community character.

Discreet Design Solutions
The antennas are concealed behind RF-transparent panels at the top of the tower, while equipment cabinets are hidden within faux brick walls at the base. This approach allows the structure to function as a modern telecommunications hub without disrupting the visual integrity of its surroundings.

Engineering and Planning Expertise
Costich Engineering provided comprehensive services including land surveying, civil engineering, landscape architecture, zoning drawings, utility design, and environmental and visual assessments. Our detailed construction drawings supported the permitting and build process from start to finish.
