Ascent Completes Acquisition of Two
Enterprise Grade Data Centres
Ascent has announced
that, in partnership with
TowerBrook Capital Partners,
it has completed the
purchase of two enterprise
grade data centres located
in the Greater Atlanta and
Toronto markets. Ascent and
the seller, a global technology
company, have entered
into partial leasebacks for
data centre space at the
properties, known as Ascent
ATL1 and Ascent TOR1 Data
Centres. The sale leaseback
arrangement enables the
customer to focus on its core
business and provides them a partner in their data centre facility operations, while at the
same time allowing Ascent to bring additional high quality, purpose built assets to market
under its growing data centre portfolio.
This strategic acquisition increases Ascent’s ability to immediately serve clients, offering
new tenants the opportunity to step into enterprise grade data centre facilities in major
markets. These facilities are exceptional assets, well suited for cloud and edge deployments
with plug and play data centre space immediately available and line of sight to substantial
growth on the properties. ATL1 currently has up to 8.1MW of critical power and is expandable up
to 14MW, and TOR1 will have up to 4.8MW of critical power available in the second quarter of
this year with the overall site capable of expanding up to 75+MW.
