Why prices sit where they do
Ashburn is the most expensive and most constrained submarket in North America, at $215 per kW per month against a $196 continental average, and up 19% year on year. Nothing about the physical cost of building explains that: Virginia power at $0.103/kWh is cheap, and land in Loudoun County exists. The constraint is grid interconnection — the queue to energise new capacity runs years, so already-powered space is the scarce commodity and is priced accordingly. Vacancy under 1% removes the buyer's leverage almost entirely. The practical implication is that Ashburn is worth paying for only when the workload genuinely needs the interconnection density; anything that does not can move to Dallas, Phoenix or Columbus and keep the same operator at a materially lower rate.
