                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Board of Directors and Stockholders of
 Crown Castle International Corp.

   We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets of Powertel Tower
Operations as of December 31, 1998, and the related statement of revenues and
direct expenses for the year then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

   We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the statement of net assets and the related
statement of revenues and direct expenses are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the statement of net assets and the related statement of
revenues and direct expenses. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall presentation of the statement of net assets and the
related statement of revenues and direct expenses. We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

   The statements of net assets and revenues and direct expenses were prepared
for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission. As discussed in note 1, such statements do not reflect
certain corporate overhead expenses incurred by Powertel, Inc., the owner of
the net assets, on behalf of the tower operations.

   In our opinion, the statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the net assets of Powertel Tower Operations as of December
31, 1998, and the related revenues and direct expenses for the year then ended
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 Basis of Presentation

   On March 15, 1999, Crown Castle International Corp. ("CCIC") and Powertel,
Inc. ("Powertel") entered into an asset purchase agreement, whereby Powertel
will sell tower structures and certain related assets to CCIC. The tower
structures and related assets consist of the tower facilities that were
previously part of Powertel's PCS and cellular operations. Their locations span
Atlanta, Georgia; Jacksonville, Florida; Memphis, Tennessee; Jackson,
Mississippi; and Birmingham, Alabama and certain areas in Kentucky and
Tennessee.

   The accompanying statement of net assets reflects the assets to be sold by
Powertel to CCIC pursuant to the asset purchase agreement. The statement of net
assets reflects Powertel's historical carrying values of the tower assets,
adjusted to exclude certain assets which will not be contributed as part of the
asset purchase agreement.

   The accompanying statement of revenues and direct expenses reflects
operations related to the tower assets to be sold by Powertel to CCIC per the
asset purchase agreement. The statement of revenues and direct expenses does
not include allocated costs related to general corporate overhead, interest
expense and income taxes and therefore may not be indicative of future
operations.

   The accompanying statement of net assets and the related statement of
revenues and direct expenses were prepared for the purpose of complying with
the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission and are not intended
to be a complete presentation of Powertel's assets and liabilities or revenues
and expenses.

 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

   Use of Estimates

   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

  Revenue Recognition

   Site rental revenues are recognized on a monthly basis under lease
agreements. Site rental revenues represent charges for tower usage billed to
third party customers under lease arrangements. Revenue amounts received in
advance are deferred and recognized over the term of the lease agreement.

   UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

   The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial
statements are based on the historical financial statements of CCIC and the
historical financial statements of the entities acquired by CCIC during the
periods presented, adjusted to give effect to the following transactions:

    (1) the roll-up of our U.K. subsidiary to an 80% ownership interest in
        August 1998;

    (2) CCIC's initial public offering in August 1998;

    (3) the conversion of CCIC's senior convertible preferred stock into
        common stock, all of which had been converted as of July 17, 1998;

    (4) the issuance of the exchangeable preferred stock in December 1998;

    (5) the recent debt and equity offerings;

    (6) the Bell Atlantic joint venture;

    (7) the proposed BellSouth transaction; and

    (8) the Powertel acquisition.

   The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for
the year ended December 31, 1998 gives effect to these transactions as if they
had occurred as of January 1, 1998. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed
Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 1999
gives effect to the (1) recent debt and equity offerings and (2) the recent and
proposed transactions described in clauses (6), (7) and (8) above as if they
had occurred as of January 1, 1999. The Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheet gives effect to the (1) recent debt and equity
offerings and (2) the recent and proposed transactions described in clauses (7)
and (8) above as if they had occurred as of March 31, 1999. The pro forma
adjustments are described in the accompanying notes and are based upon
available information and certain assumptions that management believes are
reasonable.

   Included in the notes accompanying the pro forma financial statements are
tables summarizing the unaudited pro forma results of operations and balance
sheet for CCIC and its subsidiaries that are restricted by covenants in our
high yield debt instruments. These subsidiaries exclude our U.K. subsidiaries
and the Bell Atlantic joint venture, both of which are designated as
unrestricted subsidiaries under our high yield debt instruments.

   The pro forma financial statements do not purport to represent what CCIC's
results of operations or financial condition would actually have been had these
transactions in fact occurred on such dates or to project CCIC's results of
operations or financial condition for any future date or period. The pro forma
financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and related notes and "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" included in CCIC's
Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

   The roll-up, the Bell Atlantic joint venture and the Powertel acquisition
are accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The total purchase
price for the roll-up, the Bell Atlantic joint venture and the Powertel
acquisition has been allocated to the identifiable tangible and intangible
assets and liabilities of the applicable acquired business based upon CCIC's
preliminary estimate of their fair values with the remainder allocated to
goodwill and other intangible assets. The allocations of the purchase prices
may be revised when additional information concerning asset and liability
valuations is obtained; however, we do not expect that any such revisions will
have a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of
operations. We have recorded the purchase price for the roll-up based on (1)
the number of shares of our common stock and Class A common stock exchanged for
shares of CTSH's capital stock and (2) the price per share received by us in
our initial public offering.

  Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations
                             (Dollars in thousands)

(a) The historical results of operations for our U.K. business are included in
    CCIC's historical results of operations for the period from the date of the
    roll-up, August 21, 1998, through December 31, 1998.
(b) Reflects the historical results of operations of our U.K. business (under
    U.S. GAAP) for the periods prior to the completion of the roll-up on August
    21, 1998. Such results have been translated from pounds sterling to U.S.
    dollars at the average noon buying rate for the period.
(c) Reflects the elimination of management fees payable to CCIC from Castle
    Transmission.
(d) Reflects the incremental amortization of goodwill as a result of the roll-
    up. Goodwill is being amortized over twenty years.
(e) Reflects the elimination of equity accounting adjustments to include CCIC's
    percentage in our U.K. business' earnings and losses.
(f) Reflects decrease in interest expense attributable to the repayment of
    borrowings under CCIC's senior credit facility from a portion of the net
    proceeds from the issuance of our exchangeable preferred stock.
(g) Reflects the minority interest in dividends accrued on CTSH's redeemable
    preference shares.
(h) Reflects (1) decrease in dividends of $4,348 attributable to the conversion
    of the outstanding shares of senior convertible preferred stock into shares
    of common stock and (2) increase in dividends of $25,682 attributable to
    the exchangeable preferred stock.
(i) Reflects:
  (1) increase in interest expense as a result of the issuance of the notes
      in the recent debt offering of $48,313 for the year ended December 31,
      1998 and $11,875 for the three months ended March 31, 1999;
  (2) amortization of deferred financing costs related to the notes issued in
      the recent debt offering of $1,329 for the year ended December 31, 1998
      and $333 for the three months ended March 31, 1999; and
  (3) nonrecurring financing fees of $3,000 for both periods related to the
      term loans incurred to fund the escrow payments in connection with the
      proposed BellSouth transaction and the Powertel acquisition.
(j) Reflects the historical results of operations of the tower operations
    contributed to the Bell Atlantic joint venture.
(k) Reflects additional revenues to be recognized by the Bell Atlantic joint
    venture under the global lease and the formation agreement.
(l) We expect that the Bell Atlantic joint venture will incur incremental
    operating expenses as a stand-alone entity. Such incremental expenses are
    currently estimated to amount to approximately $5,137 per year. In
    addition, we expect that we will incur incremental operating expenses as a
    result of the BellSouth transaction and the Powertel acquisition. Such
    incremental expenses are currently estimated to amount to approximately
    $15,917 per year. These incremental operating expenses are based on
    management's best estimates rather than any contractual obligations; as
    such, these amounts have not been presented as adjustments in the
    accompanying pro forma financial statement.
(m) Reflects the incremental depreciation of property and equipment as a result
    of the Bell Atlantic joint venture. Property and equipment is being
    depreciated over twenty years.
(n) Reflects additional interest expense attributable to borrowings under the
    credit facility entered into by the Bell Atlantic joint venture. Such
    borrowings are initially estimated to incur interest at a rate of 9.25% per
    annum.
(o) Reflects the minority partner's 38.5% interest in the joint venture's
    operations.
(p) Reflects additional revenues to be recognized by CCIC in connection with
    the BellSouth transaction for the sublease of tower space by BellSouth.
    This amount includes: $26,640 in revenues to be received from BellSouth and
    $7,200 in revenues to be received from other tenants for the year ended
    December 31,

                                       4

   1998; and $6,660 in revenues to be received from BellSouth and $1,800 in
   revenues to be received from other tenants for the three months ended March
   31, 1999.
(q) Reflects additional costs to be incurred for ground rents in connection
    with the preliminary BellSouth agreement.
(r) Reflects the incremental depreciation of property and equipment as a
    result of the BellSouth transaction. Property and equipment is being
    depreciated over twenty years.
(s) Reflects the historical results of operations of the tower operations
    acquired in the Powertel acquisition.
(t) Reflects additional revenues to be recognized by CCIC in connection with
    the Powertel acquisition under the master site agreements.
(u) Reflects the incremental depreciation of property and equipment as a
    result of the Powertel acquisition. Property and equipment is being
    depreciated over twenty years.
