The combined operator launched under the CenterSquare name in mid-2024 and is headquartered in Coppell, Texas, with a portfolio of about 80 facilities across 16 metros in the United States, Canada and London.\n\nThe company positions itself as an enterprise and hybrid-IT colocation specialist rather than a hyperscale build-to-suit developer: dense-power cabinets, deep network fabrics, and a 100% uptime SLA aimed at the 2,000-plus enterprise, carrier and cloud on-ramp customers it inherited from the two predecessor platforms.

Its private ownership by Brookfield, combined with the Cyxtera restructuring, gives CenterSquare a relatively deleveraged balance sheet compared with peers rolling up distressed colo assets, and management has publicly framed AI inference and high-density enterprise workloads as its growth wedge against retail-colo incumbents like Equinix and Digital Realty.","status":"private","founded":2024,"hq":"Coppell, Texas, USA","hqLat":32.9552598,"hqLng":-97.0155703,"hqGeocodedAt":"2026-08-23T21:38:05.139Z","hqAddress":null,"hqPrecision":null,"website":"https://www.centersquare.com","fundingTotal":"775000000","type":"brain","roles":["data_center_operator"],"reviewStatus":"reviewed","heatIndex":75,"lifecycleState":"active","supersededByCompanyId":null,"sources":[{"url":"https://csquare.com/about","title":"Csquare - About / Company Overview","publisher":"CenterSquare (Csquare)"},{"url":"https://csquare.com/executive-leadership","title":"Csquare Executive Leadership","publisher":"CenterSquare (Csquare)"},{"url":"https://csquare.com/company","title":"Csquare Company Page","publisher":"CenterSquare (Csquare)"}],"keyFacts":[{"label":"Headquarters","value":"Coppell, Texas, USA","sourceUrl":"https://csquare.com/about"},{"label":"Founded","value":"2024"},{"label":"Status","value":"private"},{"label":"Type","value":"brain"},{"label":"Parent company","value":"Brookfield Infrastructure Partners (private, portfolio company)","sourceUrl":"https://csquare.com/about"},{"label":"Portfolio capacity","value":"500+ MW of critical power across 3.5 million sq ft","sourceUrl":"https://csquare.com/about"},{"label":"Facilities","value":"Approximately 80 data centers across 16 North American markets plus London","sourceUrl":"https://csquare.com/about"},{"label":"Formation","value":"Launched 2024 by Brookfield after combining Cologix with the U.S. colocation business of Cyxtera, acquired out of Chapter 11 for approximately $775M","sourceUrl":"https://csquare.com/company"},{"label":"CEO","value":"Spencer Mullee (former Cologix CEO)","sourceUrl":"https://csquare.com/executive-leadership"},{"label":"Customer base","value":"2,000+ enterprise, carrier, and cloud customers; 200+ network service providers on-net","sourceUrl":"https://csquare.com/about"},{"label":"Key metros","value":"NY/NJ, Northern Virginia, Silicon Valley, Chicago, Dallas/Fort Worth, Toronto, London and 10 other North American markets","sourceUrl":"https://csquare.com/about"},{"label":"Positioning","value":"Retail/enterprise colocation and interconnection; AI inference and high-density workloads, not hyperscale build-to-suit","sourceUrl":"https://csquare.com/about"},{"label":"Public listing status","value":"Private; wholly owned by Brookfield Infrastructure Partners (NYSE: BIP is the parent listed entity)","sourceUrl":"https://csquare.com/about"}],"aliases":[],"collisionRisk":"low","reviewNote":null,"atsProvider":null,"atsSlug":null,"factoryLocations":null,"manufacturingCapacity":null,"orgType":null,"burnSignal":null,"litigationEvents":null,"insurancePostureDisclosed":null,"unitEconomicsDisclosed":null,"tickerSymbol":null,"stockExchange":null,"secCik":null,"revenueUsd":null,"revenueBasis":null,"revenueAsOf":null,"employeeCount":1500,"employeeCountBasis":"Approximate headcount reported at CenterSquare launch combining Cyxtera (approximately 900 employees pre-bankruptcy) and Cologix staff; company does not disclose an official post-merger figure.","employeeCountAsOf":"2024-01-01T00:00:00.000Z","marketCapUsd":null,"marketCapAsOf":null,"marketCapSource":null,"createdAt":"2026-08-19T02:55:56.357Z","updatedAt":"2026-08-27T22:33:18.360Z","jsonLd":{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"Organization","@id":"https://registry.deploy.report/companies/centersquare","url":"https://registry.deploy.report/companies/centersquare","name":"CenterSquare","description":"CenterSquare (branded \"Csquare\") is a Brookfield-backed North American colocation platform formed by combining Cologix with the U.S. data-center estate of Cyxtera, which Brookfield Infrastructure acquired out of Chapter 11 bankruptcy for roughly $775 million in early 2024.
