Rackhouse Seattle Facility Offers Tier III Design Amenities to Digital Fortress Customers
DALLAS, TX – September 11, 2019 – Lincoln Rackhouse, the data center division of Lincoln Property Company with over 2.5 million square feet of mission critical space under management, announces the addition of Digital Fortress as an operating partner. Digital Fortress, a premier enterprise-level colocation provider, has added its third Seattle area location by leasing the entirety of Rackhouse Seattle, a 5.4 MW facility located 16 miles north of Seattle in Lynnwood, WA.
Rackhouse Seattle provides 47,820 square feet of server-ready space, 5.4 MW of green-hydro power, N+1 mission-critical deployment, a diversity of carriers, and carrier-neutral and redundant feeds to all of the Digital Fortress data centers as well as the local peering exchange. The lease comes just three months after Lincoln Rackhouse and Principal Real Estate Investors purchased the site in May of 2019.
“We’re thrilled the Rackhouse Seattle Data Center facility is playing a vital role in Digital Fortress’ northward expansion,” comments Ryan Crabtree, Vice President of Lincoln Rackhouse. “As the mission critical real estate owner, we are dedicated to supporting the growth of Digital Fortress by providing thoroughly tested, reliable and flexible colocation facilities.
“By adding this Lynnwood, WA, data center to our portfolio, Digital Fortress now has the most diverse geographic colocation/data center offering in the greater Seattle area. We now operate facilities in Tukwila, Downtown Seattle, and Lynnwood,” comments Timothy Doherty, Chief Executive Officer of Digital Fortress. “We are excited about this opportunity to grow in the local market and to have the ability to augment our offering to support new and existing customers.”
Lincoln Rackhouse has built a successful portfolio by creating mutually beneficial partnerships with companies like Digital Fortress, based on long-term, stable leases with cloud and colocation operating partners.
