Nearly All UES 5G Towers Cancelled After Historic Preservation Review
A recent ruling by the New York State Historic Preservation Office means that only one of the 18 proposed LinkNYC 5G towers could remain as an active possibility, according to officials and a map built by the LinkNYC vendor, CityBridge.
The kiboshed towers met their demise through a mix of site-specific compatibility issues and failing a federally mandated historic preservation review on the impact the gigantic 5G transmission poles — conceived as part of a city plan to expand internet access across the Big Apple —would have on the Upper East Side’s historic districts.
