Is there any way to find out which way fiber will enter a house? The unofficial fiber map at https://thatdan.github.io/sonic_fiber/ shows that (near 16th & Mission in SF) there is fiber along Caledonia St., Julian Ave., and Weise St. However, these blocks are just house wide.

I'd like to figure out: will someone who orders fiber service at one of these houses get the fiber through the front of the house (on Julian Ave.) or the back (Caledonia St. or Wiese St.)?

Thanks.

The mapping that Dan did isn't an accurate reflection of where the infrastructure is located, because it's simply a map of the encroachment permits we applied for during make-ready and cable placement. If we're going to temporarily block any roadway, we obtain one of these permits, so it's just not a totally valid reflection of the actual outcome.

That being said - generally speaking if a premise is covered by our network (current customers will get an email - new potential members can check at http://sonic.com/availability), then the fiber will generally be connected in the same way and in the same location that their current telephone and cable utilities are connected.
