QTS is planning to expand its data center in Fort Worth, Texas, for the third time.According to a filing with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation, the project, called the QTS FTW1 DC1 Expansion, is set to cost $300 million. It is estimated to start on July 1, 2026 and end on October 1, 2027.The expansion will consist of a two-story, 147,946 sq ft (13,744 sqm) data center.FTW DC1 is the name of the data center that QTS first acquired back in 2017 from Health Care Services Corporation, and the data center expansion shares the same address – 14100 Park Vista Boulevard – as this facility.FTW DC2 is the name of the 471,875 sq ft (43,840 sqm), $220m facility that QTS filed and re-filed to construct in April 2022 and January 2024, with the latter citing higher projected costs and a longer construction timeline.QTS has data center developments in three other Texas locations. It has a 165MW, 56-acre facility in Irving, a 90MW, 32-acre facility in San Antonio, and an in-development data center in Wilmer, which it filed to expand back in April.
