Zocalo Community Development is the First
Fiber-to-the-unit Property in Colorado Through Xfinity
Communities
Comcast today announced that Zocalo Community Development, Inc.
and Principal Real Estate Investors’ Coda in Cherry Creek property
will be the first in Colorado to deliver gigabit speeds to
residents through Xfinity’s Advanced Communities Network (ACN).
Xfinity Communities, a unit of Comcast Cable, provides fiber-based
network solutions to multifamily housing properties and
developments.
Zocalo has been committed to innovation in the multifamily
industry since its founding in 2001, boasting a number of
Denver-area firsts in the multifamily industry, including
in-building bicycle maintenance shops and electric vehicle charging
stations. The company is continuing its tradition of breaking
ground by partnering with Xfinity Communities to provide gigabit
speeds as an amenity service to residents at its new, 182-unit Coda
Cherry Creek property through a seven-year bulk agreement.
“This investment in network infrastructure at the Coda property
is a notable differentiator for us in the Denver area,” said Susan
Maxwell, principal and COO, Zocalo Community Development. “Our
building is registered for LEED Gold certification, making it one
of the smarter and more sophisticated properties in the region.
With Xfinity Communities enabling us to offer gigabit speeds to
residents as an additional amenity included in their monthly rent,
we are providing the infrastructure needed to support smart home
and environmental technology, which are two very important
priorities in Colorado.”
Xfinity’s Advanced Communities Network is providing high-speed
internet through a fiber-to-the-unit deployment. In addition to
internet services, residents will have access to Xfinity TV,
Xfinity Voice, Xfinity WiFi, and the next-generation entertainment
capabilities of the X1 platform. Xfinity WiFi will also be provided
in common areas, where Zocalo made a significant investment in
entertainment systems.
“Over the past year, Xfinity Communities laid the groundwork to
support gigabit speeds across the country, and with properties such
as Coda coming online, our vision is being realized,” said David
Tashjian, Comcast Mountain West Region Vice President, Sales and
Marketing. “Today’s multifamily properties expect a high level of
technology services and increasingly see internet speed as a
competitive advantage. Through our work, we are helping building
owners and property managers satisfy the needs of residents.”
