QTS' 'Project Excalibur' To Span 7M SF In Fayetteville

QTS is revealing more about its massive project in Fayetteville, which it says will be the world's largest multitenant data center campus.

The data center giant plans to develop 6.6M SF in 16 buildings on some 615 acres, according to a development of regional impact application with the Georgia Department of Community Affairs. QTS also looks to build 400K SF of office space on the project, which is slated to start construction in 2023 and is expected to all be delivered by 2032, according to the application.

The project is expected to cost in excess of $1B for QTS, which was acquired by Blackstone last year for $10B.
