New construction doesn't really matter because they use poles for their lines in Philadelphia and they run an extension to your building for free.

Yep. My building "qualified" and a technician basically threw a line out the back to a pole. Apparently they only install in the rear of buildings, so if they can't get access back there, that can be an issue.

Funny, my brother lives in Kensington and he had fios installed literally this morning. I asked and he said they ran it to the front of the building.
