Outdated Infrastructure and Resident Frustration
Prior to working with Internet Subway, Braddock Lee Apartments was operating on aging coaxial infrastructure that was more than 20 years old. Residents frequently experienced unreliable internet service, dropped connections, and poor performance—an unacceptable standard for a community positioned to serve Alexandria’s young professionals and remote workers.
Despite a recent renovation to unit interiors, the property’s internet offering fell short of modern expectations, affecting leasing velocity and long-term tenant satisfaction.
Solution: IS Next Gen Bulk
Internet Subway solved the problem by retrofitting the entire community with **fiber to each unit**, delivering a future-ready network that supports today’s needs—and tomorrow’s.

Owner Benefits: Immediate & Durable NOI
As 1Gbps becomes the new baseline in internet service, its perceived value is steadily compressing—driven by national ISPs marketing multigigabit speeds as the new standard. Internet Subway’s Next Gen Bulk is designed to address this head-on. The platform begins delivering NOI from day one, with a $50+ monthly revenue opportunity per unit, while including provisions that increase base speeds to 2.5Gbps and 5Gbps over time. This built-in scalability ensures that properties can maintain their projected NOI even as market expectations shift and lower-tier service pricing becomes commoditized. Unlike legacy bulk models or coaxial systems, IS Next Gen Bulk leverages fiber infrastructure that evolves with demand, eliminates resident ISP coordination, and simplifies leasing through turnkey, high-speed service—protecting asset value and NOI well into the future.
A Smart Investment in Long-Term Performance
Braddock Lee didn’t just upgrade its apartments—it upgraded its entire digital foundation. By deploying fiber to every unit and launching Internet Subway’s Next Gen Bulk service, the property delivers modern connectivity, enhances leasing appeal, and builds durable NOI.
