Downtown Indianapolis residents now have a new choice for their television and communications services. In conjunction with AT&T’s* announcement of its launch of AT&T U-verseSM TV, AT&T U-verse High Speed Internet and AT&T U-verse Voice in parts of downtown Indianapolis, AT&T also announced a strategic relationship with Flaherty & Collins Properties, which owns Cosmopolitan on the Canal, for the marketing of its U-verse services on the property, bringing advanced, fiber-based services directly to Cosmopolitan on the Canal residents.
The introduction of these new services in the area is part of AT&T’s ongoing expansion plan across Indiana. The agreement between AT&T and Flaherty & Collins Properties builds upon AT&T’s Connected Communities program, a strategic marketing initiative between AT&T and regional or national single-family builders, developers, real estate investment trusts, apartment ownership and management groups, and home owners’ associations to provide next-generation communications and entertainment solutions to residents.
AT&T U-verse services, which are all delivered over AT&T’s advanced Internet Protocol (IP) network, offer a new and unmatched alternative to cable television. AT&T U-verse brings together TV, broadband, digital home phone and AT&T wireless services—all on one bill—with unique features that provide a new level of integration, convenience and control.
“We have designed and built Cosmopolitan on the Canal as a premier downtown residence offering the latest technology, sophistication and cutting-edge amenities,” said David Flaherty, chief executive officer of Flaherty & Collins Properties, which owns Cosmopolitan on the Canal. “We wanted to provide a suite of the finest products to meet our residents’ demands, and by aligning with AT&T, we’re able to bring state-of-the-art, fiber-based technology directly to our buyers and further enhance the incredible features of the building.”
Today’s announcement is part of AT&T’s ongoing investment following the passage of the Telecom and Video Reform Act (HEA 1279) that was signed into law by Gov. Mitch Daniels in 2006. Between 2006 and 2008, AT&T's total capital investment has exceeded $1 billion across Indiana.
“This expansion of AT&T U-verse reflects our commitment to make the investments necessary to bring consumers across Indiana a new era of true video competition,” said George Fleetwood AT&T Indiana president. “We are thrilled to offer this innovative video choice to downtown Indianapolis customers. Local residents have asked for more choices in television service and today we’re delivering.”
More Choice, Advanced Features
AT&T is the only major service provider in the nation offering a 100 percent Internet Protocol-based television (IPTV) service, making AT&T U-verse one of the most dynamic and application-rich services available today, with advanced capabilities that customers don’t get from other providers.
“While residents in the Indianapolis area have enjoyed U-verse in the past, we are now able to bring this new TV choice to downtown customers” said Brian Ducharme vice president and general manager, AT&T Indiana. “We know Indiana customers want a better choice to break free from cable, and AT&T U-verse is the answer. And we’ll continue to make U-verse TV even better for customers with regular upgrades and new applications that enhance your TV experience.”
