Cell towers in New London County, CT
The FCC registry lists 67 constructed antenna structures in New London County, 14% of Connecticut's 482 — one of the three most in the state. SBA Communications owns 26 of them (39%), so a landowner here with a tower lease is more likely than not dealing with one company. The three big tower companies — American Tower, Crown Castle and SBA — hold 39 between them.

Who owns the towers in New London County
32 different registrants own the 67 structures. One is registered to an individual or family trust, whose name this site withholds. Owner names are the registrant's legal entity as filed with the FCC; the large tower companies file under many subsidiary names, which this site groups into families where the brand is in the name or listed in the company's SEC filings.
Height and age
The median structure here stands 190 feet, 20 feet taller than the Connecticut median — a sign of broadcast and rural coverage towers rather than short suburban sites. The tallest is a guyed tower near Monteville at 1205 feet, built in 2002. More than in any other decade, 36% were built in the 2000s.
Every registered structure
Sorted tallest first. The registration number opens the FCC record, which shows the exact location and the owner's contact for the structure. A tower on your land that is not in this list is probably under 200 feet and away from airports, so it did not need registering — see why some towers aren't listed.
