Summary
TierPoint's Chicago page, in its version modified on 3 September 2026, says 'Just west of the Loop in the heart of Chicago, the state-of-the-art TierPoint Chicago (Polk St.) data center and colocation facility enables companies in many industries to increase business agility' and that the Chicago area hosts one of TierPoint's multitenant cloud pods. It gives 601 W Polk St, Chicago, IL 60607, 107,000+ total square feet, 16,000+ square feet of raised floor, two 2.25 MW redundant generators, DWDM connectivity to 350 E Cermak, 24x7x365 on-site security and 24x7 remote hands. This records the facility as operating on 3 September 2026, the modification day of the captured version (bounded below by the Internet Archive copy of 15 July 2026 and above by the 26 October 2026 capture); it is not an opening date, and generator ratings are not IT load. evidence

- Precision scope
- Cook County Assessor's published parcel centroid for PIN 17163100010000 (601 W Polk St; tax years 2024-2026), which coincides with the centroid of the parcel's 2021 GIS polygon (1.465 geodesic acres, about 98 by 62 m). It locates the data-centre building's parcel, not a surveyed footprint.
- Horizontal uncertainty
Not reported
The Assessor publishes no positional accuracy for parcel centroids; the point represents the whole 1.46-acre parcel, and the position of the data-centre space within the building is not published.

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.
