[1st-mile-nm] LinkNYC Gigabit WiFi Story

[Richard Lowenberg]

A story of interest from NYC:

Workers have begun installation of LinkNYC hubs that will provide 
gigabit WiFi access points throughout New York City. The full network 
will include 7,500 public hubs, each replacing a pre-existing phone 
booth. Once completed, the hubs will also include USB device charging 
ports and touchscreen web browsing.   The project has had some 
controversies, but The Verge article and photos are of interest.
