– Raeden

It will cover approximately 22 acres at 1565 High Tech Way and be developed by data center operator Raeden.

There is an existing 451,217 sq ft (42,000 sqm) building on the land parcel, and Raeden would use that building for a data center, whilst demolishing some smaller existing buildings, including the central power supply, mechanical plant, and the central utility building.
