Founded in 1995, American Tower Corporation, one of the largest global Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs), is a leading independent owner, operator and developer of wireless and broadcast communications real estate.
Through communications sites and other real estate solutions in 22 countries around the world, American Tower enables our partners and customers to connect with more people, which builds community and creates opportunities.
Think of a tower site like a “vertical office building,” where we provide the basic infrastructure, and our customers—or tenants—lease space on our sites to meet the connectivity needs of those they serve.
Central to American Tower’s business model is colocation or “neutral hosting”. This means we can host multiple wireless communications tenants on one tower, allowing them to reduce network infrastructure costs and concentrate on providing service to their customers.
