Probably something like allied riser or cogent co.. ie prewired bulidings..
cogent co has something like 100 mbps at 2000/month, ie you need to be in one of the building they're in

they'll give you a set of ip address and stuff and you just plug in.. they manage everything in the closet and stuff...
