In a preview, it was stated that Niko could originally climb telephone poles.
"I didn’t see Niko climb a ladder, per se, but I did see him ascend a telephone pole to get a bird’s eye view of Liberty City. He didn’t climb up it like a gorilla, however. He simply pulled himself up on the series of rungs on the pole. This feat was actually quite impressive. You could clearly see his weight transfer from side to side as he moved up the pole."

This is further evidenced by pre-release screenshots showing telephone poles with rungs that extend to street level.
