Gainesville, VA – (February 22, 2022) – Corscale, the exclusive data center platform of the Patrinely Group, together with its capital partner, USAA Real Estate, has broken ground on the first building of a 300+MW, 130-acre data center campus in Northern Virginia.

The first 72MW of this multi-phase project is expected to come online in Q4 2022 and will consist of a single, two (2) story building with eight (8) data halls and office space totaling approximately 483,000 square feet.
