Harrison Street Maryland hyperscale data center sale

Chicago, IL, Feb. 26, 2026 – Harrison Street Asset Management (“HSAM,” or the “Firm”), a leading alternative global investment management firm with over $108 billion in assets under management through highly differentiated assets across infrastructure, real estate and credit strategies, announce the sale of two data center campuses located in Maryland.

The assets, Emerson and Sandy Farms, are hyperscale powered shell data centers totaling more than 218,000 square feet across approximately 95 acres and are located just outside of Baltimore, MD. These properties have been developed to support cloud and computing contracts and are fully leased. The campuses are designed to accommodate future expansion, with long-term development plans underway.

HSAM acquired and broke ground on the Emerson and Sandy Farms projects in 2020 subject to pre-leasing with a hyperscale user, with Oppidan Connect serving as the lead developer.

“We are pleased to announce the successful sale of these two hyperscale powered shell data center campuses, which are fully leased,” said Michael Borchetta, Co-Head of the North America Transactions Group at Harrison Street Asset Management. “As data center spend and operationally intensive cloud demand continue to grow, assets serving the need for secure digital infrastructure are positioned to benefit from durable, long-term tailwinds.”

Since 2018, HSAM’s digital investment platform has committed over $6.5 billion to powered shells, carrier hotels, colocation sites and dark fiber platforms. HSAM’s digital assets portfolio reinforces the firm’s long-term focus on targeting demographic-driven and needs-based assets addressing critical global demand.

Building an AI Startup Without Owning GPUs

Not owning GPUs has become the default, deliberate strategy for building an AI company — not a compromise founders accept reluctantly. H100 rental rates fell 64-75% in fifteen months, a dense ecosystem of neoclouds and inference-as-a-service providers now lets startups skip infrastructure entirely, and credit programs can fund a company’s first year before a founder writes a check
