The Cincinnati Bell WiFi network will deliver Internet speeds that support remote learning, remote work, and telehealth applications for residents of Jamestown Village.

"We are extremely excited to have the ability to offer this service to the residents of the Dayton Housing Authority," said Gordon Henry, executive director of the Dayton Housing Authority.

The goal is to improve the quality of life for our residents, and we hope that this will be a building block for more projects and enhancements to come to our housing community."
