T5 Data Centers is an Atlanta-based developer and operator of wholesale and enterprise data centers, founded in 2008, that leases powered-shell and turnkey data hall space to enterprise, hyperscale, cloud, and government tenants rather than selling cloud compute of its own. As of 2025 the company operates a portfolio of purpose-built facilities concentrated in Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Charlotte, Colorado Springs, Portland, the Bay Area, Minneapolis, and Cleveland, with several past locations (Los Angeles, Cincinnati, suburban New York) having been sold or vacated over the years as the company recycled capital into new campuses. T5’s current growth strategy centers on gigawatt-scale campuses aimed at cloud and AI workloads, starting with a large Grayslake, Illinois site and a newly acquired fifth Chicago-area building (CHI V) explicitly built for high-density AI and cloud deployments. The company also functions as a facilities-management and critical-construction contractor (T5FM) for data centers it doesn’t own, in addition to its core wholesale colocation business.
