Digital Realty Shows Off Upgrades in St. Louis
Digital Realty recently unveiled improvements to 210 North Tucker, a key data center and telecom hub in the St. Louis market. Digital Realty CEO Michael Foust was on hand to show off the more than $30 million in upgrades and improvements, including a 16 megawatt expansion of the building’s power capacity. “We have essentially performed open heat surgery on this building while we have customers in place running their busineses,” said Donough Roche, Director of Sales Engineering for Digital Realty Trust. That effort yielded a recent lease of an entire floor by Contegix, a local colo and cloud services firm. This video runs about 8 minutes.
