There had been news of the same endeavors in Santa Clarita, California, but so far, the NYC is the first to break ground. This July alone, there will be meetings held for all the volunteers whose agenda is to follow through a pilot project called Wifi4NY. Led by Andrew Rasiej, the event aims to begin doling out free routers at East Village. People in the neighborhood will be asked about their opinion on this, the technical matters will be tackled, and the group will have to address the number of routers that would be needed to make East Village virtually wireless.
