fios is coming to the south slope

prezst

someone from verizon came by my building on president st near citibank today and was checking-out a pole on our property as a possible hub for service in the area. they said we'd be getting some sort of contract in the mail for access to our property. i didn't talk to them so i can not supply any details, such as dates. but since i know many of you are desperately yearning for fios service to replace time warner...well, there you go.

Excellent news!

But... President Street is "South Slope"? Not Center Slope?

RE: Verizon, did you realize that their workers are on strike against the company? Enjoy the scabby service.

President St is NORTH Slope.

Flatbush > 1st St = NORTH

1st St > 9th St = CENTER

9th St > Prospect Expy = SOUTH
