Sunset Park gets free Wi-Fi with LinkNYC
City installs technology hubs along Fourth Ave.
The de Blasio administration has given a gift to Sunset Park in the form of free Wi-Fi. The neighborhood has become latest community in the city to welcome Wi-Fi stations on the sidewalks, thanks to the Department of Information Technology and Telecommunications, which recently had six technology hubs installed along a busy stretch of Fourth Avenue.
The Wi-Fi stations, which were installed under the de Blasio administration’s LinkNYC program, are located on Fourth Avenue between 24th Street and 37th Street.
And local residents wasted no time in using them. “It’s good to have it. I like the fact that you can use it for free,” Anita Santiago told the Brooklyn Eagle as she stood at a kiosk on Fourth Avenue and 33rd Street Thursday morning.
