Cogent Data Center – Toronto
245 Consumers Road, Toronto, ON, M2J 1R3, CA
Cogent's Toronto facility occupies 12,800 square feet at 245 Consumers Road in North York, and it is the largest of the three sites Cogent operates in Canada. Toronto is the country's financial and interconnection centre, and a position here is what makes Canadian data residency practical for an American business — customer records and regulated workloads stay on Canadian soil while the network still reaches New York and Chicago on the same backbone. Utility computing is available on site alongside colocation. Consumers Road sits in the North York commercial district, off the downtown core and its property costs, with straightforward access from Highway 401.
