A new Wi-Fi network is being unveiled in Brooklyn.
It's designed to provide free wireless access to the Internet between the Brooklyn and Manhattan bridges.
It's named Dumbo Wi-Fi, reflecting the name of the neighborhood.
The neighborhood improvement district teamed with a developer, Two Trees Management Company, to have equipment installed by a nonprofit group, NYCwireless.
