History

The company was founded in 2001 as CRG West at two of the West coast's original carrier hotels: Market Post Tower and One Wilshire.

In August 2005, the company opened a facility in Washington, D.C.

In May 2007, the company acquired properties in Boston and Chicago. It also purchased a tract of land in Santa Clara, with the intent of developing a 50-megawatt data center Coronado campus there.[1]

In June 2009, the company changed its name to CoreSite.[1]

In September 2010, the company became a public company via an initial public offering.[2]

In April 2012, the company acquired Comfluent and entered the Denver market.[3]

In August 2012, Coresite became the first AMS-IX enabled data center operator in North America.[4]

In July 2016, Tom Ray, the chief executive officer of the company, retired and was replaced by Paul Szurek, lead independent director.[5]

In August 2016, the company announced the $60 million acquisition of the 22-acre Sunrise Technology Park from Brookfield Office Properties.[6]

In December 2021, the company was acquired by American Tower.[7][8]
