It may be indirectly related to the explosion - in an abundance of caution the power company may have shut off power to the area to prevent gas explosions due to an electrical spark igniting natural gas leaks that no doubt occurred from the first blast. It’s also possible that both AT&T primary and backup power sources in the building were severely damaged.

yep

looks like they shut off natural gas lines later on to the back up generators at the site causing the later outages

note: work on better back up plan

I don’t think their are gas lines in downtown Nashville. But the electrical boxes are underground.

This wasn’t the Bat Building ATT office, it was a separate building one block east. It’s read brick and ugly. Been there a long, long time.
