T5 to develop new data center campus in Illinois

T5 Data Centers recently revealed its plans to develop a new data center campus in Grayslake, Illinois as it announced that the 160-acre site, 40 miles north of Chicago, will be used for “multiple data center buildings.”

“The new Grayslake campus represents a major investment by T5 to meet the growing demand for large-scale data center capacity to support cloud and artificial intelligence workloads,” said David Horowitz, senior vice president and head of leasing for T5 Data Centers. “The site’s location is perfectly positioned between major data center hubs of the northern Chicago suburbs and southeastern Wisconsin, which provides an ideal connection point.

Horowitz added: “The amount of power at this site, combined with T5’s customer-focused approach to data center development, will greatly benefit our customers. T5’s data center business is structured to support our customer’s design, build, and fit out preferences and uniquely allows them to select the operations model that best fits their business requirements now and as they evolve in the future.”
