bell atlantic acquired gte on june 30, 2000, and named the new entity verizon communications. the gte operating companies retained by verizon are now collectively known as verizon west division of verizon (including east coast service territories). the remaining smaller operating companies were sold off or transferred into the remaining ones. additional properties were sold off within a few years after the merger to centurytel, alltel, and hawaiian telcom. on july 1, 2010, verizon sold many former gte properties to frontier communications. other gte territories in california, florida, and texas were sold to frontier in 2015 and transferred in 2016, thus ending verizon's landline operations outside of the historic bell atlantic footprint. verizon still operates phone service in non-bell system areas in pennsylvania under verizon north, and in non-bell system areas in virginia and knotts island, north carolina under verizon south.
