At the time this picture was taken, they were probably using Automatic Electric stepping switches - each one about the size of 2 #10 juice cans stacked on top of each other. What a noise bin! Now, with modern equipment, they would only need one floor for everything - and it's quiet!

The telephone building is located on Chestnut Street, not Harvard Street

What a place to learn telephone at. Larget SXS office maybe but there where bigger is Boston. Worked here for the better part of 6 years as a SXS Switchman. Who could forget the good Dr. working the frame.
