The 180,032 square-foot colocation facility, adjacent to the Chicago Board of Trade (CME), is one of Chicago's premier data centers. CoreSite's Chicago data center was designed to meet the security, interconnection and power requirements of the world’s leading financial institutions. CoreSite can offer access to financial exchanges, such as NASDAQ OMX/IDCG, to trade faster and more reliably.
In addition to excellent access to financial exchanges, our Chicago colocation facility has direct access to 20 other carriers and service providers and CoreSite’s Internet exchange, Any2. 427 S. LaSalle has been at the heart of Chicago’s communications thoroughfare since 1919 when it was built by Western Union and significantly renovated in 1999 and 2007. As one of Chicago’s most connected colocation sites, many carriers and service providers also offer easy access to network with other POPs at 111 N. Canal, 600 S. Federal and 350 E. Cermak.
CoreSite’s Chicago data center located at 427 S. LaSalle is a successful example of an urban redevelopment project. CoreSite acquired the historic Western Union building in 2007 and completely redeveloped the lower level, the first floor and the third floor into world-class data center space.
