Thanks for sharing this! As someone in a fiberless city (Amsterdam), with a monopolistic local provider that's unwilling to expand, this is inspiring.

What happened to Citynet? They were supposed to wire the whole of Amsterdam with open access fiber. Did they stop after the Reggefiber/KPN acquisition?

The cost for micro trenching can be upwards of $200k a building in Manhattan. I would assume dealing with sunken homes, collapsed PoE's and NIMBY folks would make it prohibitively expensive.

But I have no idea why they stopped.
