Anthony Bolner, senior vice president with Stream RealtyPartners' Dallas office, says San Antonio was selected for theproject because of the low cost of available power. The center willhave two 10-megawatt utility feeds, with the primary feed comingfrom the proposed 200-megawatt Westover Hills substationimmediately adjacent next to the site on Rogers Road.

"CPS, the city-owned utility in San Antonio has a generation mixof coal, nuclear and natural gas," Bolner says in a press release."It means they can produce electricity at a much lower cost."

Another driver is the 417,000-sf Microsoft data center, which isnext to Stream's site. Because of that, Bolner tells GlobeSt.comthat the targeted tenants will be large corporate data center userswho want a secure site with large setbacks that is out of the wayof rail lines and flight paths while offering large amounts oflow-cost power. The building can be expanded to 350,000 sf, ifneeded.
