Mayor Bloomberg says the project will improve digital access
for 80-thousand residents of the neighborhood, including 13-thousand
people who live in public housing.
The network will cover the area from 110th to 138th Street
between Madison Avenue and Frederick Douglass Boulevard, and it's being
installed in phases. Phase 1 - which spans from 110th to 120th Street -
will be finished this month. Additional blocks will be added in February
and May of 2014.
