I have an interesting question. I have been to the T-Mobile store and to a Cingular store. I asked them both if a certain city had a tower either in or very near to where I to a street that I was interested in. They showed where their towers were, and I even knew where the nearest street to the tower was.
My question is this: Does Verizon have another website other their major one that shows either the whole nation or state? These two maps are to generalized. I want to see what the Verizon salesperson see's. Why is it, that the Verizon salesperson does not want to share this info with a possible customer?

The information you are looking for is on several websites. Most of these are for the carriers shopping their towers for colocation with other carriers. One problem, though. There are many companies like American tower who build towers on spec and then shop them to the carriers. These will be listed as American Tower because they hold the FCC/FAA license for the tower.
