New Data Center in Mesa in Elliot Road Tech Corridor

Sat Mar 10 17:48:08 MST 2018

James, your a walking advertisement for that area.  Very interesting.  

I live roughly 8 miles East of the Chandler Intel plant.  I've read all
I can find about the Chandler Price Road Tech Corridor.  The Price Road
Corridor consisted of a lot of vacant land South of the 202.  From what
I have read electric power is a problem as is the way they have zoned
the area for very large businesses.  They have overlooked the small
start ups which is probably bad. There is a lot of vacant land in
Southern Chandler.  

What you write is very interesting.... I would like to learn more. 
Seems many of the Metro Phoenix cities have some sort of tech thing
going on.  

Very exiting!!

I live right there at Guadalupe and Hawes roads just east of the "Dairy air" .  Apple operates a datacenter/server manufacturing plant at Signal Butte and Elliot (Right across the street from this planned datacenter).  The area has many things going for it over the other areas in the valley.

ADOT just completed the first phase (single flyover) of a multi-billion dollar connection from the 202 to the Airport. which is immediately adjacent to the Airport. The Apple plant is 5 minutes from the Airport.

Eastmark being the most prominent (Old GM proving grounds) Its practically a destination place to live and attracts tech engineers. I would say that at least 25 percent of the GoDaddy developers that work out of the Gilbert office live in Eastmark or somewhere along that corridor.  About 15 percent of my neighbors in the surrounding 3 streets are in software development, systems engineering or some kind of IT related field. 
> I've worked in the North Scottsdale, and Chandler tech areas and currently work in downtown Phoenix.  As a former GoDaddy software engineer working out of the Gilbert office was by far the best of all of those worlds.  But the others suffer from traffic congestion, long commutes, more expensive surrounding residential properties.
