Sabey Data Centers: SDC New York

Sabey Data Centers’ SDC Manhattan (also known as Intergate.Manhattan) is located at 375 Pearl Street, Lower Manhattan, NY — the former Verizon Building, now transformed into New York City’s only purpose-built data center facility. Operated by Sabey Data Centers, a privately owned multi-tenant data center developer & operator, this facility is strategically placed in the heart of NYC’s financial, media and business districts. Its location provides extremely low latency into metro and long-haul networks, with proximity to major business, financial, and enterprise hubs across the Tri-State region. 

Unique positioning factors include its vertical design in a high-rise building, substantial power and cooling capacity, carrier neutrality, infrastructure built to withstand environmental risk (such as flood / high-water concerns), and its ability to offer powered shell, build-to-suit, and colocation services in flexible, high-density environments. 

⚙️ Facility Highlights

• Approx 18 MW capacity, with plans / support to scale up toward 40 MW as demand and build-out proceed. 
• Over 1,000,000 square feet of total space in the building, with ~222,000 sq ft dedicated footprint for data center operations. 
• Floors built for data center use: multiple floors (e.g. 6, 7, 11, 12) are fitted with data halls / technical space. Mechanical and electrical infrastructure on intermediate floors. 
• Modular colocation spaces, powered shell, and build-to-suit deployment options. 
• The facility is built with independent redundant mechanical systems per deployment / module. 
• Generators rated to sustain about 72 hours runtime at peak load with on-site fuel supply, plus supplemental fuel contracts. 
• Cooling infrastructure: multiple large chillers, cooling towers, hot-aisle containment, and water-cooled or economizer/free-cooling options when outside air conditions permit. 
• Substations and electrical feeds are positioned at least ~46 feet above sea level for disaster resilience. 

🔐 Security & Compliance

• On-site, skilled operations & engineering teams working 24/7 to maintain uptime and manage remote hands / dispatch as needed. 
• Multiple access control layers with surveillance and monitoring systems across the facility. 
• Fire detection systems installed both above and below racks. 
• Compliance: the facility is declared to adhere to multiple standards in its compliance program. (While I did not find a precise list of certificates like ISO/Tier used in all cases, Baxtel lists it as “HIPAA certified, Tier-3 equivalent” in one listing. 

🌐 Connectivity & Carrier Access

• Carrier-neutral facility with direct access to many carriers. Some named carriers in the building include AT&T, Axiom Fiber, Cogent, EarthLink, GTT, Level 3, Lightpath, Lightower, OCG, Spectrum, United Fiber & Data, Verizon, XO, Zayo, ZenFi.
• Diverse fiber entry paths: north and south risers along the building, manhole to Meet-Me Rooms, multiple carrier pathways. 
• Access to Sabey’s own private communications/Intergate.Exchange network. 
• Strong interconnection opportunities: rich telecom hub environment given its former Verizon switching building heritage. 

💼 Who It Serves

• Financial services firms located in Manhattan or needing very low latency to Wall Street and other finance/markets operations. 
• Enterprises and cloud providers needing colocation or build-to-suit deployments in a high-density, secure environment.
• Media, tech, and digital content companies requiring strong connectivity to carriers and network infrastructure.
• Any business with mission-critical operations that demands high resilience, redundancy, and compliant infrastructure in NYC.
