ROCHESTER, NY (July 29, 2025) — Greenlight Networks, New York’s fastest growing fiber-to-the-home internet provider, is accelerating its fiber internet expansion plans across Rochester in 2025, including announcing several new buildouts in towns on the west side. Representing a $30 million investment, Greenlight is rapidly expanding its network footprint into new neighborhoods located throughout Greece, Gates, Chili and Hilton.
“Our hometown, Rochester, remains a critical part of our expansion strategy especially in communities that have historically lacked access to high-speed internet like those along the west side,” said Mark Murphy, Greenlight Network CEO. “We can all agree that connectivity is no longer a luxury. It’s the foundation for education, work, healthcare and opportunity. Having access to fiber infrastructure and reliable, fast—affordable—internet service will be a true gamechanger for these residents and businesses.”
From day one, the Rochester community has rallied behind Greenlight and championed its expansion plans throughout the area. Currently more than 135,000 homes are connected to the network, 40,000 households of which are across Rochester’s west side, including the towns of Greece, Gates, Chili, as well as the villages of Spencerport and Hilton.
West side expansion highlights include:
- Hilton: Greenlight first brought fiber internet to the Village of Hilton in November 2024. Today, thousands of residents there have access to reliable, high-speed internet.
- Greece, Gates, and Chili: Expansion continues across these towns, with plans to connect an additional 12,000 homes by the end of this year.
- Spencerport: In June, construction began in the Village of Spencerport. Once completed, the project will deliver high-speed fiber internet to thousands more homes.
The company’s recent movement into Hilton and Spencerport marked a major milestone for local residents, bringing fiber internet to these communities for the very first time. Greenlight has no plans of slowing down either, continuing its mission to deliver fast, reliable services across the region.
“Congratulations to Greenlight Networks on this exciting milestone. We appreciate their $30 million investment into our community, expanding their service area to be able to support new customers across Rochester’s westside. Access to reliable, affordable, high-speed internet is more important than ever to advance our region’s economic and community priorities, supporting business, education, community health, and many more needs. We are proud to have Greenlight Networks as a Greater Rochester Chamber member and look forward to supporting continued growth,” said Bob Duffy, President & CEO, Greater Rochester Chamber.
Founded in Henrietta, New York, Greenlight Networks has become one of the Northeast’s fastest growing fiber internet providers, earning record-high customer satisfaction rates along the way thanks to its radically different approach to service, price transparency and community investment. With speeds that are faster and more reliable than traditional providers, Greenlight’s customers experience seamless connectivity, ideal for streaming, remote work, gaming and video calls.
In addition to the west side, Greenlight announced earlier this year that the company has new expansions plans for Fairport and the town of Perinton, connecting more than 2,400 local homes by the end of 2025. In April, Greenlight also announced several out-of-state expansions in northeast and central Pennsylvania, as well as Baltimore, Maryland. The company is set to acquire NEPA’s Loop Internet company as well, which will further fuel expansion efforts along the Northeast.
