AT&T Brings U-verse TV and High Speed Internet to Downtown Austin's W Austin Residences

New Agreement Delivers the Latest Entertainment over an Advanced Fiber Network.

Connecting residents to innovative entertainment services through an extensive fiber-to-the-node (FTTN) network development, AT&T* and CJUF II Stratus Block 21 LLC today announced an agreement that will bring AT&T U-verse® TV and U-verse High Speed Internet services to more than 150 condominium units within W Austin Residences in downtown Austin.

Occupying floors 18 through 37 above the W Austin Hotel on “Block 21,” W Austin Residences are located in the heart of the 2nd Street District – Austin's newest shopping and cultural center, with more than 25,000 square feet of retail stores, restaurants and entertainment venues.

This agreement between AT&T and CJUF II Stratus Block 21 LLC is part of the AT&T 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 and homebuyers.

“Through the AT&T Connected Communities deal, we're adding even more value to these properties for the owners, and we're really setting a precedent for technological progress in the area,” said Beau Armstrong, chief executive officer of Stratus Properties, the project developer. “We're proud to work with AT&T to bring these state-of-the-art services to our residents.”

U-verse TV customers can enjoy numerous benefits, including the ability to watch and manage recordings from a single DVR on any connected TV in the home with U-verse Total Home DVR; the ability to choose and watch up to four of your favorite channels at one time with the exclusive My Multiview app; an extensive High Definition (HD) channel lineup with access to 130 HD channels; the ability to program DVR recordings from their Web-connected mobile phone or PC; personalized, on-screen weather, sports, traffic and stock information via AT&T U-bar; and more.

AT&T U-verse High Speed Internet offers faster available speeds. All U-verse Internet customers receive a wireless access point with their installation, so W Austin residents will be able to connect Wi-Fi enabled devices to their home broadband connection. Wi-Fi provides consistently fast speeds for accessing the Internet on smartphones and other devices, and Wi-Fi usage doesn't count against AT&T customers' monthly mobile data plans. Information on available packages can be found online at: www.att.com/u-verse.

At the AT&T retail store located at 1011 W. 5th Street in Austin, W Austin residents will also have access to a full suite of AT&T wireline and wireless products.

Rick Hubbard, vice president, AT&T Connected Communities said: “AT&T is pleased to be able to deliver U-verse services directly to residents here. Our services are the perfect complement to the many other amenities offered within the W Austin Residences.”

AT&T Connected Communities continues to grow and support the company's communication and entertainment services as developers and builders across the nation look for ways to answer the demands of today's residents.
