Machine Investment Group and its affiliates this week announced the purchase of two former LSC Communications industrial facilities in Lancaster, Pennsylvania to be redeveloped into data centers. The two separate locations, totaling more than two million square feet will be redeveloped into data centers focused on artificial intelligence and cloud computing.
“At Machine we excel in identifying legacy industrial & manufacturing assets that can be repositioned to better reflect current commercial demand,” said Eric Rosenthal, co-founder of Machine Investment Group. “Through this acquisition and transformation, we will be establishing Lancaster as a technological hub to meet the increasing demand for the exponential growth in technology that is happening worldwide.”
“When we made the difficult decision to cease printing operations in Lancaster, we were very clear as to what our focus would be: supporting our dedicated team members in their career transitions and honoring the legacy of these properties in writing their next chapter,” said Stephanie Mains, CEO of LSC Communications MCL. “These sites were known for best-in-class printing and the delivery of information to people around the world. By choosing Machine, we’re passing the baton to a team uniquely positioned to build upon that legacy, creating cutting-edge data centers to process and deliver the information of the future.”
