CoreSite D.C. (DC2)
1099 14th St NW, Washington, DC, 20005, US
CoreSite markets DC2 as the only enterprise-class colocation data center in downtown Washington, and its electrical design backs the positioning: a four-to-make-three UPS configuration with a dedicated maintenance UPS feeding what CoreSite calls true 2N distribution, behind N+1 generators with 18 hours of fuel. The facility runs 24,000-plus square feet on the same White House utility grid as DC1, a mile away. Cooling is an N+1 chilled-water loop with cooling towers and variable-speed CRAHs. Where DC1 concentrates peering, DC2 is built for enterprise deployments that want downtown Washington without the interconnection premium, and the two are dark-fiber tethered so customers can use both. Nine feet of clear height, 115 lb per square foot floor loading and a 28-by-28-foot column grid define the halls. Government-facing tenants lean on the same NIST 800-53 assessment that underpins customer FISMA and FedRAMP work across the District.
