STACK Plans to Develop 12MW Data Center on Newly Acquired Plot in Atlanta

STACK INFRASTRUCTURE, a company delivering wholesale build-to suit, colocation, and powered shell solutions in seven U.S. markets today, announced plans for expansion of its data center campus in Atlanta, bringing STACK’s total critical capacity in this market to 20MW. The planned development would more than double STACK’s capacity to support hyperscale and enterprise clients.

“STACK is experiencing outsized demand in Atlanta based on the favorable business climate, low overall operating costs, and robust infrastructure. The expansion of our campus will enable us to help our clients further anchor their presence in the Southeast,” said Matt VanderZanden, Chief Strategy Officer of STACK.

STACK intends to break ground on a new two-story, 12MW data center to be developed on a recently acquired 6-acre land parcel adjacent to STACK’s existing data center in Alpharetta, Georgia.

“STACK’s expansion strategy continues to be driven by the needs of our clients and this is another example of our commitment to establishing strong footholds with room for growth and campus economics in their most important markets,” said Matt VanderZanden, Chief Strategy Officer of STACK. “STACK is experiencing outsized demand in Atlanta based on the favorable business climate, low overall operating costs, and robust infrastructure.
