Comparto esta notcia, creo que seria triste que no se hiciera nada para
preservar el patrimonio:

PETITION TO SAVE THE ANTENNA IS BELOW
> The legendary Bell Labs Horn Antenna, which resides in Holmdel, is in
danger of being removed or destroyed. The antenna was used in 1964 to
confirm the Big Bang Theory of how the universe was created. For this
scientific breakthrough, Bell Labs scientists Robert Wilson and Arno
Penzias won the Nobel Prize in Physics. The antenna, which sits atop
Crawford Hill along Holmdel Road, was designated a National Historic
Landmark in 1989. In 2021, this property, including the historic horn, was
sold to a developer.
>
>
> Citizens for Informed Land Use (CILU) has partnered with other local
organizations to advocate for preservation of this property as a public
park and historic site with walking/hiking trails, views of Raritan Bay and
Manhattan, and the intact antenna.
