Keystone NAP Advanced Data Center expands sales with partner JLL
Real estate firm JLL has announced a new leasing agreement signed for the Keystone NAP Data Center, which is the first advanced data center in the Northeast. Located at the tax advantaged Keystone Opportunity Industrial Zone (KOIZ) in Bucks County, PA, the 180,000 square foot facility provides diverse, carrier-neutral and redundant dark fiber routes to the major peering points in Boston, New York, New Jersey, Philadelphia, Northern Virginia and Chicago, in addition to the multi-tenant data centers in these regions.
“Partnering with industry leader, JLL, validates our advanced data center offering while expanding our reach to national enterprise and web-scale opportunities,” said Shawn Carey, Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Keystone NAP. “The positive chemistry between the JLL and Keystone NAP teams was a critical factor in our selection process. JLL’s and Keystone NAP’s goal are completely aligned, which makes this a fantastic partnership for us.”
Carey explained, “We are enabling a flight to quality as enterprises and service providers are vacating antiquated facilities and leveraging our advanced data center campus capable of providing sophisticated hybrid cloud IT services along with smart colocation.”
“Keystone NAP delivers large amounts of power capacity to the end user that is unmatched by competitors, making it a huge differentiator,” said Joe Colletti, JLL Vice President. “The facility is set to be one of the leading data center providers in the Mid-Atlantic region.”
In addition to guaranteed network performance, Keystone NAP provides extreme power durability, robust multi-tenant data center services, high-grade security and massive capacity for future growth. Its modular innovation gives organizations ultimate flexibility to tailor power and cooling consumption to their unique data center demands, minimizing oversizing and up-front expenditures. The building includes a power infrastructure that aggregates over 2,040MW of power from four industrial-grade power feeds within a few mile radius, which supports an unprecedented amount of power durability.
The lead brokers on the assignment are Joe Colletti, Vice President; Tom Weitzel, Managing Director, and Jon Meisel, Managing Director.
