Mayor, community to mark opening of state’s largest free public hot zone with “cord cutting” ceremony

Indianapolis – Please join Mayor Bart Peterson and business and community leaders as they “cut the cord” to celebrate the official opening of the Fountain Square Cultural District Wi-Fi Zone, the largest free public wireless hot zone in the state of Indiana.

                                         When: Wednesday, June 27, 2007
                                                   10:15 am

                                      Where: The Rooftop Garden Restaurant atop The Fountain 
                                                 Square Theatre Building; 1105 Prospect St.

 

This event marks the first public-private partnership to create a public Wi-Fi Zone in the city of Indianapolis and was made possible through grants received by the Southeast Neighborhood Development Inc. and contributions of installation and management of the service from eWireless.

Created as an economic development tool for the Fountain Square Cultural District, this hot zone will eventually cover a majority of the district including the Indianapolis Cultural Trail.

At the ceremony, Mayor Peterson will announce the location of the Indianapolis historic landmark that will become the city’s next free wireless internet zone this summer.
