Getting fiber to a site in Illinois.
Chicago is one of the four markets with the deepest concentration of metro dark fiber in North America, and its carrier-hotel and peering infrastructure make it a true crossroads for long-haul routes running east-west and north-south. That density gives buyers unusually strong route-diversity options and a large supplier bench — Chicago is typically the easiest of the secondary-adjacent Midwest markets to source competitively.
