Verizon launches 5G in New York City, Panama City and Boise

Verizon flipped the switch on its 5G Ultra Wideband network in parts of New York City, Panama City and Boise, pushing the total number of cities the speedy network operates in to 13. It's a slow rollout for sure but each new city that comes online brings us one step closer to wider availability.

Kyle Malady, Verizon’s executive vice president and chief technology officer, said customers can expect to find 5G service in business districts and public spaces where large crowds gather. In NYC, for example, users will have access to the network in the following areas:

Manhattan: Midtown, Financial District, Harlem, East Harlem, Hell’s Kitchen and Washington Heights

Brooklyn: Downtown Brooklyn

The Bronx: Pelham Bay, Fordham Heights and Hunt’s Point

Around Landmarks: Bryant Park, St. Patrick’s Cathedral, Madison Square Garden, Trinity Park (Brooklyn), the Lincoln Tunnel (Manhattan Entrance), Javits Center on 11th Ave between 36th and 37th and the Theatre District on Broadway between 49th and 52nd
