Despite living here for over a year now, I just came across my first small cell in the City of Syracuse. The site and equipment are located on and adjacent to the rooftop of Rosie’s Bar & Grill just west of Syracuse.
Below is a photo showing the rooftop small cell- which includes a small antenna mount along with an omni type antenna. Based on what we have seen in proposed Verizon rooftop small cell plans for other clients- this appears to be a Verizon installation.
The Verizon small cell connects to an approximately 4′ tall equipment cabinet mounted on a steel platform on the side of the building. Verizon has likely entered into a small cell lease agreement with Rosie’s for the placement of the equipment. They typically offer $250/month to $300/mo. for this type of lease although like anything that is negotiable. If Verizon or another small cell provider contacts you for a similar proposal- give us a call at (877) 428-6937 or contact us.
