Prologis Inc. has filed for special exceptions to convert warehouses into data centers in Sterling, Virginia.

The logistics giant is seeking permission for extra density above what the existing zoning allows for data centers at 42121 and 45181 Global Plaza, reported the Washington Business Journal.

San Francisco-based Prologis’ property comprises two adjacent industrial buildings comprising about 81,000 square feet. The development site spans approximately 10 acres, with by-right development of 261,000 square feet. Prologis is looking to increase this to nearly 436,000 square feet.

Prologis also has a previously submitted request for a similar project nearby. In January, the company applied for a rezoning and similar special exception at a separate industrial warehouse property. If approved, that exception would allow for about 750,000 square feet of data centers, above the 450,000 allowed there by-right, in place of the roughly 265,000 square feet of distribution facilities currently available.
