Telecom Corridor
From Free net encyclopedia
The Telecom Corridor is a technology business center in Richardson, Texas, a northern suburb of Dallas, which contains over 25 million ft2 of office space and accounts for over 82,657 jobs as of 2000. Template:Ref The Corridor is a strip about three miles long along U.S. Highway 75 (North Central Expressway), between President George Bush Turnpike and Interstate 635. More than 5,700 companies, including 600 technology companies are located in the area, including significant players such as Nortel, Ericsson, Alcatel, Texas Instruments, and Southwestern Bell. While a booming area of Dallas's economy during the late 1990's, the dot-com bust of 2001 hit the region hard, and it is still recovering from an extended slump.
