DC BLOX to open data center in Alabama with significant growth potential

 BIRMINGHAM, Alabama – Atlanta-based DC BLOX today announced plans for a data center in Birmingham that has the potential to grow into a flagship operation with an investment that could total $785 million.

DC BLOX, a provider of data center, network and cloud services, plans to use the 27-acre, former Trinity Steel site in downtown Birmingham to develop a technology and innovation campus that will drive the connected digital economy in Birmingham and all of Alabama.
