Santa Clara Approves 496,250-SF Center

SANTA CLARA, CA-The city of Santa Clara has approved Denver-based CoreSite Realty Corp.’s application for entitlements to increase the size of its data center campus at Coronado Drive and Stender Way here. The City’s action entitles CoreSite to increase the density of its campus from 229,600 square feet to 496,250 square feet.

The development rights will enable CoreSite to construct three new buildings in addition to CoreSite’s existing 50,000 square-foot data center at 2901 Coronado Dr. The entitlements also allow for construction of a proposed electrical substation on the data center campus. Included in the plan is CoreSite’s data center at 2972 Stender Way, where CoreSite is currently constructing 101,000 square feet of data center space, doubling the size of the initial 50,400-square-foot entitlement. CoreSite expects to complete the building in the third quarter of 2011.
