ACC2
Ashburn, VA
Completed in 2005, ACC2 is situated on 22 acres of land at the Ashburn Corporate Center Phase I Condominium in Loudoun County, Virginia. The facility is located within a half mile of the corporate offices of Verizon (formerly MCI's world headquarters) and America Online's corporate headquarters. Loudoun County is the fastest growing county in the region and the eighth fastest growing county in the U.S. ACC2 comprises approximately 87,000 gross square feet and 53,397 raised square feet, with an aggregate critical load of 10.4 MW evenly divided between two computer rooms. In 2000, we acquired the undeveloped land related to ACC2 and developed ACC2 as an empty shell. The shell was leased from mid-2001 through late 2003 to a provider of colocation services. Thereafter, ACC2 was vacant. In the first quarter of 2005, we began developing the infrastructure of ACC2, and in October 2005 we completed development and brought the property into service as a wholesale data center.
