CyrusOne Austin Met III Data Hall 4

CyrusOne LLC completed a $12,000,000 renovation at 7100 Metropolis Dr in Austin, transforming an existing shell into a new data hall. This 50,000 sq ft project, filed as CyrusOne Austin Met III Data Hall 4, involved the installation of associated mechanical and electrical equipment within Travis County. TDLR closed the project file in September 2022, marking the end of the accessibility review process for this construction.

The renovation was registered with TDLR in January 2022, with construction starting in April 2022. The scheduled build window spanned 153 days, a duration longer than the 98-day median for similar renovation and alteration filings in Travis County. The estimated cost of $12,000,000 places this project in the top quarter of costs for its type in the region, significantly above the county median of $296,998.

Corgan Associates served as the design firm of record for this data hall upfit. The scope specifically focused on converting the existing shell structure to support data center operations, requiring substantial mechanical and electrical upgrades. This private, privately funded project reflects CyrusOne’s continued expansion in the Austin market.
