That is what ultimately happens when a puss from either coast moves into the area, looking for an easy ride.

Luckily for the country....Dallas is as un-Texas as this State gets.

I have to admit that it was always amusing when I was out of country though. .."What part of Dallas is Texas in? was a very common question.

Nah... for the last couple of hundred years, people have come to Texas to be in a somewhat free society.

Miscreants have always welcome to prove their worth.

It's when the Federal Government stopped us from handling unworthy miscreants that turned the tide.

I don't think so. That would need much denser racks, more cooling, probably a chiller or tower to cool that much volume

I was thinking the same. The blacked out windows and the tile through most of the interior, commercial doors, drop ceiling, etc etc aren't all that livable. OSHA exit signs, pull stations...

That office across from those lockers, with the transaction window, is pretty strange. Serious setup and probably bullet resistant.

I think it is described as a concrete tilt-up.
Wonder if a certain Chinese General owned it.

If you work 40 hrs/wk: at 5% inflation and after 5 years, you need a 28% pay raise or to work 44 more hours (*one full extra week* per month+) to make up the difference.

This is inflation

What a strange property.

This is a weird transitory area in Dallas. Just a bit further west is a very nice neighborhood (formerly the neighborhood of Roger Staubach). North is Richardson, a desirable suburb with a good school district. South is I635/LBJ, a parking lot masquerading as a freeway. The house is next to Coit Road which has intense traffic. But to the East is a bad neighborhood - high crime, apartment city, transient residents, very diverse (I am being polite). Because of the undesirable location, someone for away with this house whose use obviously violates its zoning.

Looks like someone was running a plastic injection molding business in their abode?

Saw this on the news tonight. Wasn't paying huge attention but it seemed like they said it was built by some utility as some sort of a power substation and was used but it was never fully developed. It was built with a residential facade to skirt zoning regs and blend better with it's location.

Former data center or hosting facility. As soon as they said “connected to two separate utility feeds” plus a a gas fired generator, dead give away.

The white room is raised floor data center space. Probably high capacity up flow cooling also available.

For the price being asked, a steal if you were in the market for such a facility. JMO.

One room, I believe, is. Photo's 10,11, etc. That's a raised or false floor. See the suction cup lifter in the floor? Each panel lifts out to gain access to utilities. A server room. Explains the big generator. Must have been, or intended to be for something pretty serious with a gen like that & to be semi-disguised as an upscale residence.


Interesting place for sure.
