It looks like the slow and steady fiber-fication of Missouri is well underway, as the Gladstone City Council has voted to bring Google’s speedy broadband service to the city. This comes just a few days after the Mountain View company welcomed Grandview into the fold, and we’re sure the Show Me state will soon see even wider Fiber adoption just like neighboring Kansas. Of course, Gladstone’s induction is merely honorary at this point; there’s still plenty of work to be done before its citizens can surf the fastest internet waves in the Midwest.

Google Fiber has been slowly, but surely, expanding itself as Google recently announced it expects to release the service in Provo, Utah in late 2013 and Austin, Texas by 2014. A new city is being announced today as Google Fiber will now expand to Grandview, Missouri.
At this time, Google has yet to reveal when exactly Grandview will begin to get Google Fiber, although in their announcement blog post, they did say “it will still be awhile.” Prior to its expansion into Grandview, Google says they need to “plan and engineer our network there first” which for the most part means the expansion is in its confirmation stages and is nowhere near its actual implementation phase.

It’s a bit strange, but Missouri hasn’t received much attention from Google since Fiber debuted in Kansas City. On the Kansas side of the divide, the blazing-fast broadband has steadily rolled out to new neighborhoods. Hell, plans are already underway to bring the gigabit connection to two completely new states. Yet, there hasn’t been much progress through Missouri’s enclaves. Finally Mountain View is delivering the Show-Me State a little love, by announcing plans to expand Fiber’s reach to Grandview. Residents shouldn’t get too excited, though; there is still a ton of work to do. In fact, the effort is still in the planning stages, so sit tight. Still, the city will probably have gigabit internet before 99 percent of the country. (So, maybe get just a little excited.)
