Summary

TierPoint's Raleigh page, in its version modified on 3 September 2026, says that 'TierPoint's state-of-the-art Raleigh data center and colocation facility enables companies to increase business agility and improve IT performance' and that the secure data center is part of TierPoint's network of over 40 data centers, and gives 'Raleigh (RAL) 5301 Departure Drive Raleigh, NC 27616' with 65,000+ total square feet, 33,000+ square feet of raised floor and five 2 MW redundant generators. 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 12 November 2025, which carries dateModified 2024-07-31 and different reliability lines, and above by the live capture of 27 October 2026; the page-sitemap lastmod is identical). It is not an opening date, and generator ratings are not IT load. evidence

Precision scope
Centroid of Wake County tax parcel 1716964146 at 5301 Departure Drive, as published in the NC OneMap statewide parcel service (5.37 geodesic acres, about 208 by 152 m). The point lies inside the parcel. It locates the data-center property, not a building footprint or surveyed boundary.
Horizontal uncertainty
Not reported

The statewide parcel compilation publishes no positional accuracy for county parcel polygons; the point represents a 5.4-acre property, and the building position within it is not published.

Geometry evidence
afefe957

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.
