Nasdaq put up 60-80 Merritt Boulevard in 1960 as its disaster-recovery centre, and sixty-six years on the Trumbull building still runs to that shape: two data centre pods plus a dedicated disaster-recovery pod, roughly 227,552 sq ft on an 8.3-acre site in Fairfield County. Digital Realty sold it on 16 December 2024 for about $10 million. The buyer was the Aphorio Carter Critical Infrastructure Fund, holding title through AC Trumbull LLC, and cogNOVUM runs the floor, marketing the address as CNYC1. In October 2025 cogNOVUM set out a $200 million five-year upgrade and applied for twenty-year waivers under Connecticut's data centre tax incentive. Certification deserves a close reading before a compliance team relies on it: Uptime Institute Tier III certificates for both design documents and the constructed facility are registered against 60 & 80 Merritt Blvd, Suite 110, under Digital Realty's name from the earlier ownership. Local politics is live too - Trumbull residents petitioned for a data centre moratorium in August 2026.
