We’re excited to share that we’ve officially broken ground on HOU2, the second data center on our Houston, Texas campus. This milestone comes just months after securing financial backing from Tallvine Partners, and it reflects the accelerating demand we’re seeing across enterprise, cloud, and AI workloads.
HOU2 will add 24 megawatts of utility capacity through a purpose-built, 110,000-square-foot facility designed to deliver move-in-ready IT capacity as early as Q4 2026. This expansion builds directly on the success of HOU1, which we delivered in 2018 and has since become one of the highest-rated data centers in the Houston region.
Continuing Our 100% Uptime Legacy
Since HOU1 went live, we’ve maintained 100% uptime. With HOU1 now nearly fully subscribed, HOU2 allows us to continue supporting both current and prospective customers who need high-quality, high-availability capacity in a constrained U.S. data center market.
We’re designing HOU2 with the same focus on reliability, sustainability, and flexibility, including:
Distributed-redundant electrical infrastructure
Flexible data halls supporting enterprise and AI needs
Carrier-rich connectivity with 16 carriers already on campus
A proven operational environment on an entitled, active site
Celebrating a Milestone With Our Partners
We broke ground on November 14, 2025, joined by industry leaders and project partners including CenterPoint Energy, Walker Engineering, HTS, Thomas Craig Construction, and Encore Concrete Construction.
As our CEO, Christopher Hinkle, shared at the event:
“Our strong track record of delivering high-quality infrastructure and customer service has brought us to an inflection point. With HOU1 nearly fully subscribed and HOU2 underway, this expansion gives customers certainty in a supply-constrained market.”
Our partners at Tallvine echoed this momentum. Mark Clark, Partner at Tallvine Partners, noted:
“This expansion aligns perfectly with our growth strategy for the TRG platform, and customer demand continues to accelerate across the business.”
We’re grateful to everyone who joined us to mark this moment. As Bob West, our Head of Revenue, said:
“Thank you to our sponsors, speakers, customers, vendors, CenterPoint, and Tallvine. We’re committed to continuing to deliver exceptional service and partnership with HOU2.”
