A Look Inside 111 Eighth Avenue

Interesting article and video from Data Center Knowledge. As a reminder, Equinix has a peering point (NY3) inside the former NYC Connect.

>>111 Eighth Avenue is among the world’s most wired buildings. As one of the leading carrier hotels in Manhattan (along with 60 Hudson Street), the massive 2.9 million square building building is home to more than 200 technology companies. As the operator of the building’s primary “meet-me room,” Telx coordinates network connections in the fiber-rich hub. In this video, Telx Chief Marketing and Business officer Tesh Durvasula provides a look inside 111 Eighth Avenue, which was originally built as the Port Authority Commerce Building in 1932, and covers the entire city block between 15th & 16th Streets from Eighth to Ninth Avenues.
