waver?

Is there an individual video franchise agreement/waver in lieu of a NYC-wide agreement or will they forgo selling TV service?

If VZ just pays off the city council, aka the mob's hand-picked slobs, FIOS is in NYC.

The only person the mob can't stand is Hillary.

No. TV isn't part of the deal until the pols get off their backsides.

But at least these 2 apartment complexes will have a lot of competition - not something everybody can claim. I'll bet these people can get great deals from the providers.

Verizon has no video franchise agreement with the city, so it can provide only Internet and phone service over fiber. It is negotiating to get permission to provide the full "triple play" that includes cable TV.

Stuy Town and Peter Cooper Village, which have 11,232 units, are already served by two cable companies: Time Warner Cable Inc. and RCN Corp. Both provide triple-play services.
