Data Center Dynamics covered DataBank’s acquisition of its LAS1 data center facility in Las Vegas, Nevada. The company completed the purchase of the 7185 Pollock Drive property, which it had previously been leasing from the Thomas & Mack Development Group.
The facility offers 3.6MW of capacity across 36,800 square feet, with DataBank last expanding the site in March 2022. CEO Raul Martynek explained that acquiring the property reinforces the company’s strategy of building the largest edge data center footprint in the United States.
“By completing this purchase, DataBank is responding to Las Vegas’ need for colocation, connectivity, and cloud services, while solidifying our status as a prime location for mission-critical workloads serving the Las Vegas area.”
— Raul K. Martynek, CEO of DataBank
The facility has changed hands several times over the years. zColo took over operations in 2012 when it purchased MarquisNet’s data center business, and DataBank subsequently acquired zColo from Zayo in 2020.
The acquisition follows DataBank’s February 2024 financing round of $456 million, partly designated to fund the company’s ongoing expansion plans.
