FIOS in PH

shark week

I saw a guy doing survey measurements and drawing a lot of paint lines on the street and sidewalk on St. Marks last weekend. I asked what he was doing and he said he worked for Verizon and that Verizon was going to be doing a lot of wiring work in the area some time soon.

Sounds like FIOS may finally be coming to the neighborhood. Any other news on this out there?

Fios already wired some of the large apartment buildings.

Newswalk on Dean between 6th and Carlton has FIOS Internet and phone. We are told that we will be able to get the FIOS television service in December. So far the Internet and phone service has been excellent.

I'm not surprised if this turns out to be true

especially because Cablevision/Optimum has finally added in some wifi hotspots in PH.. most of the places that already had Wifi hotspots are where Optimum is having to compete with FIOS ..
