T-Mobile Makes Peace With Bronx Landlords Over Rooftop Antenna Access

T-Mobile agreed with three Bronx landlords to the voluntary dismissal with prejudice of their rooftop antenna dispute, said their stipulation Friday (docket 1:22-cv-08369) in U.S. District Court for Southern New York. Each party will bear its own attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses, it said. T-Mobile said it tried unsuccessfully for months to get the buildings from which it leases rooftop space to sign the New York Fire Department paperwork required for the carrier to access those rooftops and upgrade its wireless antenna facilities (see 2210270004). The landlords said they rebuffed the requests for fear T-Mobile was trying to use the FDNY paperwork request as a ploy to grab more rooftop space.
