DALLAS--(Business Wire)--
3000 Skyline Dallas, a 770,000-square-foot data center development, is on
schedule for a launch of phase one in the first quarter of 2010. Located in the
City of Mesquite, Texas, nine miles from the Dallas CBD, the facility boasts its
own on-site substation that will feature 100 million watts of power provided by
Oncor Electric Delivery Company. 

The facility is a development of Dallas-based CAPSTAR Commercial Real Estate
Services and The Cambay Group, based in Walnut Creek, CA. 

When completed, 3000 Skyline Dallas is projected to be one of the country`s five
most powerful data centers, providing sufficient electrical power for any
configuration today and for years to come, according to John Patterson, a
CAPSTAR principal. The initial installation will provide 40 million watts of
power. 

The LEED-designed facility, divisible into four quadrants of 20 million volt
amps each, will provide robust TIA-942 design standards for Tier III data
centers. Each quadrant is equipped with separate internal entrance for
individual user security, individual electrical distribution with redundant
feeder circuits and a new FM I-90 roof. Scalable data center spaces are
divisible from 45,000 square feet to 770,000 square feet. 

"At the stage of development that we`re in, every detail is important," said
Bret Bunnett, CAPSTAR president. "But the most crucial element is the electric
power provider, and we are very pleased with the cooperation and leadership we
are experiencing with Oncor. They have been reassuring and thoroughly
professional. We know that they`ll deliver what we require and more." 

The architectural firm of RTKL has designed the facility, and the firm of
Thornton Tomasetti is providing structural engineering consulting. Additional
