A boon for businesses and residents alike, the 100% fiber ultra-fast network will offer a gigabit internet connection to homes, apartments and business locations in the development. Situated along the Cape Fear River on River Road, RiverLights will celebrate its grand opening this December and welcome new residents after the first of the year. The RiverLights community is owned by a business entity of North American Sekisui House, LLC (NASH), and is being developed by Newland Communities, the master developer of the community. RiverLights is one of more than 30 communities the NASH-Newland partnership owns or manages together, in 13 states across the US. RiverLights will offer approximately 1,400 acres of mixed-use living, residential home sites, commercial spaces, boardwalks, parks, and miles of trails for exploration. And soon, the community will feature gigabit internet connection from AT&T to every home, apartment unit and business. "We want to bring ultra-fast internet speeds and access to content in near real-time to more customers," said Peter Feeney, vice president of multifamily and connected community sales, AT&T. "We're working with property owners, management groups, homeowner associations and developers to expand the availability of ultra-fast internet over our 100% fiber network. This will make properties more attractive to potential residents and businesses." "Having a gigabit connection available to every home throughout the RiverLights community means our residents have the ability to work from home without missing a beat," said Bill Mumford, vice president, development, Newland Communities, responsible for the development of RiverLights. "The internet speeds available can also provide an added benefit to the commercial businesses that want to relocate to RiverLights not seen in many other locations."
