Profile

Project scope: QTS Fort Worth 1 is an operating and expanding data-center site at 14100 Park Vista Boulevard. QTS acquired the existing 260,000-square-foot data center in 2017.
Power and grid: No exact-site power capacity has been disclosed. ERCOT is the available grid context; the utility and interconnection remain undisclosed.
Compute role: QTS Fort Worth 1 DC1 is a purpose-built, carrier-neutral data center operated by QTS at 14100 Park Vista Boulevard. It provides colocation-oriented suites, cages, private and partial cabinets, bare-metal servers, public-cloud servers, connectivity, customer office space, and 24x7x365 on-site operations.
Cooling and environment: 2N-configured water-cooled chillers. Cooling towers. Closed-loop cooling avoids operational cooling-water consumption, reducing demand on local water supplies compared with evaporative cooling.
Local reporting: Trade coverage reported that QTS planned a new two-story data center addition at 14100 Park Vista Boulevard, identifying the project as FTW1 DC2 and describing it as part of the existing QTS Fort Worth campus.
