stack infrastructure (infomart Data Center)

Hillsboro, OR

Jackson | Main Architecture, P.S., (JMA) played a pivotal role in the adaptive reuse of an existing chip manufacturing building, skillfully transforming a 240,000 SF, two-story office/manufacturing facility into a cutting-edge colocation data center with a substantial 57,000 SF of computer floor space. Leveraging the existing infrastructure, JMA ingeniously used the second-level ventilation fans to facilitate air circulation within the computer room. In addition to this, JMA also managed the design of a 100,000 SF expansion, demonstrating exceptional versatility in adapting to evolving client needs.

South Hill data center (Centeris Data Center)

Puyallup, WA

Jackson | Main Architecture, P.S. (JMA) transformed a 300,000 square foot, 3-story microchip processing building into a state-of-the-art data center located on a sprawling 100-acre site. This comprehensive remodel introduced a new entry and lobby, modern office and controls area, and a 55,000 square foot raised access floor space. The project’s excellence in design and sustainability was recognized with the NAIOP “Outstanding Project of the Year” award for Exterior Commercial Projects in Washington and has also achieved LEED® Gold Certification.

Vantage Data Center

Quincy, WA

Jackson | Main Architecture, P.S. (JMA) led the design and construction of the Vantage Data Center in Quincy, WA, a 173,000 SF colocation facility featuring pre-engineered metal buildings. The project harmonizes with the region’s blend of technological advancement and environmental consciousness through the use of innovative cooling systems and cutting-edge, tier four emergency power solutions. This approach ensures the facility offers unparalleled flexibility and scalability to meet the dynamic needs of its tenants.

Large enterprise Data Center

Undisclosed Location

Jackson | Main Architecture, P.S. (JMA) spearheaded the development of numerous mission-critical projects for a distinguished yet confidential client across the nation, introducing the innovative “chicken coop” design for enterprise data centers. This design ingeniously employs free cooling by harnessing the natural airflow generated by the computers’ cooling fans, alongside a unique architectural feature that promotes cooling through convection, akin to the ventilation systems used in traditional chicken coops. This design approach not only significantly reduces the reliance on energy-intensive mechanical chillers, but also accelerates the process of bringing new data center capacity online, underlining JMA’s dedication to sustainable and energy-efficient building solutions that cater to the evolving needs of mission-critical facilities.
