The transformation of the historic Neckermann building into Digital Realty's newest data center has been one of DPR's largest and most complex projects in Europe. Challenges ranged from structurally modifying the building and expanding the courtyard area to building a strong safety culture with thousands of craft workers from over 40 countries. Completing this project is the result of a strong, smart team and partnership. By sharing a common vision and a project-first mindset that is collaborative rather than traditional and transactional, we've built a project we can all be proud of. #AdvancedTechnology #Frankfurt #DataCenters
