Verizon cell phone tower is located near the intersection of Highway 60 and Monrovia Street and provides for full LTE service. The site is located about half a mile off of Highway 60, but tucked far enough away where you will not hear any highway traffic. The closest nearby land occupants are about 2 miles away and more in other directions. Privacy will not be a concern! We are slowly in the works of adding a firepit area and some pet area fencing. The perimeter is marked with green metal stakes with red tops. What is Nearby?
