Summary

DataBank's Ashburn Campus page, in its version modified on 17 September 2026, states that the 18-acre campus 'is home to IAD1, IAD3 and IAD4 data centers with rich campus cross-connect and interconnection options' and is served by an off-site utility substation providing 70 MW, and lists IAD1 at 21635 Red Rum Drive (85,330 IT sq ft, 9.9 MW) and IAD3 at 21630 Red Rum Drive (200,000 IT sq ft, 40 MW), each with 18 onsite carriers (updated from 20 and 19 in the archived May 2026 copy). DataBank's IAD4 page (version of 13 August 2026) calls IAD1 and IAD3 the 'two existing facilities ... already in operation', and the IAD3 page (version of 28 September 2026) says IAD3 opened in 2023. This records IAD1 and IAD3 as operating on 17 September 2026, the modification day of the captured campus page; it is not an opening date. IAD4's status is not established, and the capacities are design figures, not load in service. evidence

Location details

Coordinates: 39.01652, -77.48215
Geometry licence: public-record-source-terms
Use scope: Campus locator
Scope class: official_tax_parcel_union_centroid
Authority: Official source
Source entity: Campus
Method: official_parcel_union_centroid
Derivation: direct_geometry
Precision scope: Planar centroid of the union of Loudoun County parcels MCPI 088381462000 (Red Rum Land Condo, 15.19 geodesic acres) and 088481748000 (11.00 geodesic acres) on either side of Red Rum Drive (two parts, 26.19 geodesic acres, about 345 by 535 m). It locates the campus property carrying IAD1, IAD3 and IAD4, not a building footprint; the union is larger than the 18 acres DataBank states and includes an unattributed address point (21631 Red Rum Dr) on the land-condominium parcel.
Horizontal uncertainty: Not reported
The county publishes no positional accuracy for its parcel polygons; the centroid represents a two-parcel, 26-acre property that differs from the operator's 18-acre campus figure.
Geometry evidence: 4512ec2f

A locator places the site on the map. It is not a building footprint, a construction extent or a surveyed boundary unless the use scope is an official boundary, and even then it is a parcel or permit boundary.
