The record, newest first

  1. Csquare's Minneapolis page and spec sheet list the Shakopee MSP1 site with 19.1 MW of utility power. (Csquare, undated; Csquare, undated)

  2. Brookfield, which closed its purchase of Cyxtera in January 2024, combined it with Evoque under the Centersquare brand. (DatacenterDynamics, April 2, 2024)

  3. CenturyLink completed the sale of its 57 data centers to an investor group, which renamed the business Cyxtera. (DatacenterDynamics, May 2, 2017)

  4. CenturyLink opened the Shakopee data center with 1.2 MW on 13,000 sq ft; DCK reported a design of up to 6 MW and 100,000 sq ft of raised floor. (Data Center Knowledge, May 20, 2014)

  5. CenturyLink said its Savvis unit would open a Shakopee data center in 2014, developed by Compass on 10 acres, starting at 13,000 sq ft and 1.2 MW. (CenturyLink, Oct. 1, 2013)

Conflicts and open questions

  • The chain from CenturyLink to Cyxtera (2017) to Centersquare (2024) is documented for the companies, but no opened source states that today's Csquare MSP1 at 4450 Dean Lakes Blvd. is the same building CenturyLink opened in 2014; the match rests on both being the operator's only Shakopee site.
  • Floor area: 28,900 sq ft on the spec sheet and 29,800 sq ft of raised floor on the web page.
  • Original design: 4.8 MW of IT load (CenturyLink 2013) or up to 6 MW (DCK 2014), and up to 100,000 sq ft of raised floor on 10 acres owned by Compass.
  • The Csquare pages are undated; status_date is the date they were opened.
