The Boston facility totals approximately 66,000 square feet, including approximately 40,000 square feet of turn-key data center space and partially built-out raised floor space.  The turn-key data center lease for the new facility in Chicago totals approximately 20,000 square feet of raised floor. 

"SAVVIS continues to be a very good customer for us, and these leases are a strong indication of the ongoing demand for our move-in ready turn-key data center space," says Chris Crosby, senior VP of Digital Realty Trust. "We are pleased to be able to support the growth of their business by continuing to provide them with flexible real estate solutions."

Digital Realty Trust owns, acquires, repositions and manages technology-related real estate.
