Brooklyn residents: just say no to space
elevators! 02/01/2005 08:37 PM
Xeni Jardin: Boing Boing reader Max Clarke says,

Recently on my blog, I put up an image of a mysterious flyer being posted in Williamsburg, Brooklyn (where, in recent years, community activists have fought real estate developers' plans to build luxury high-rises, and the city's plans to site trash facilities and power plants on the waterfront). The flyer is a masterful parody of all this. It reads:

"WILLIAMSBURG DOESN'T NEED A SPACE ELEVATOR! The Space Elevator Will Mean: Less Parking, Weird Ribbon Thing, Constant Loud Whirring Noise, Increased Space Elevator Truck Traffic. Developers have submitted plans to build a massive space elevator in Williamsburg! This monstrosity, completely out of context with existing development in the neighborhood, will be accessible only to the wealthy, forcing thousands of average Williamsburgers from their homes and live-work spaces! Jobs the elevator will generate (operators, repairmen, astronauts) are certain to go to non-residents! Don't sit idly by and let this elevator cast its impossibly long, cold, and very narrow shadow over our homes! CALL 311 AND TELL THEM 'I JUST DON'T NEED THIS SPACE ELEVATOR!'"

The flyer is credited to F.E.T.S.E.o.t.N (Fight Extremely Tall Space Elevators on the Northside), and includes the URL of an anti-space-elevator-in-Williamsburg Yahoo group.

Link. See also this proposed NYC rezoning plan, which includes a number of proposed 8-35 story luxury complexes in a currently working-class neighborhood with an average building height of 3 stories. Link. While this flyer is most certainly a joke, space elevators are not -- at least for some. Link (thanks for the reminder, Dr. Setebos)

Service may cost as little as $7 a month and be folded into the cost of rent. Half the residents have computers; the rest can purchase them from a Bronx firm that refurbishes used machines....

Apartment Building Offers Free But Not
Permitted Wi-Fi to Residents 05/19/2004 01:26 PM
An apartment resident worked with his landlord to build out good Wi-Fi coverage for free Internet access--but did he read the Comcast contract?: The page documents how "JC" worked with his landlord to build out ubiquitous coverage for the complex, incidentally benefitting himself by eliminating his personal monthly broadband bill. But he notes they're paying $60 per month to Comcast for their Internet feed, and at that rate, Comcast isn't offering shared Internet access in this fashion. Comcast clearly only allows use by people in the same household, and used to charge extra per machine and try to restrict sharing by locking down use to a single Ethernet adapter address. Given the promotion that JC's story has gotten, how long is it before either Comcast shuts them down or Speakeasy Networks steps in and offers free access in exchange for promotion? Speakeasy remains the only ISP that I'm aware of that encourages the shared use of personal or business DSL and T1 connections at all prices. [link via BoingBoing and Nigel Ballard]...
