Polsinelli Represents Legacy Investing in Acquisition of 50MW Texas Data Center Development Site

Polsinelli recently represented Legacy Investing, a real estate platform focused on high-performance properties, in its acquisition of a development site outside San Antonio, Texas, where the company plans to develop a 50-megawatt data center campus. The project marks another significant investment by Legacy Investing in the rapidly expanding digital infrastructure sector and further strengthens its presence in key growth markets across the United States.

Located in one of the nation's fastest-growing data center corridors, the development will provide critical infrastructure capacity in a region that continues to attract significant investment from technology companies and hyperscale operators.

"Data center development requires careful coordination across real estate, construction and energy disciplines from the earliest stages of a project," said James D. Barnett, the Polsinelli shareholder who led the representation. "Our team worked closely with Legacy Investing to help navigate the acquisition and position the project for successful development, leveraging the firm's multidisciplinary capabilities to address the unique considerations that accompany large-scale digital infrastructure investments."

The matter drew on the strength of Polsinelli's Real Estate, Construction and Energy teams, whose close collaboration helped guide the transaction and support development planning efforts. Their coordinated approach helped create a seamless process for the client and established a strong foundation for the project's next phase.

The transaction further highlights Polsinelli's growing presence in the data center sector, where the firm advises developers, investors, owners and operators on acquisitions, development, financing, energy procurement and other matters critical to bringing digital infrastructure projects to market.
