Company broke ground in March-Goodman has topped out its data center in Los Angeles, California.
Goodman Group has completed the structural topping out of its Goodman LAX01 Vernon data center.
Located at 3094 E Vernon Avenue in Vernon, the three-story LAX01 spans 263,410 sq ft (24,471 sqm) and will deliver up to 32MW of critical IT power (49.5MW gross).
Working with construction partner Whiting Turner, build out began in March 2025, and the facility is expected to be power shell-ready by mid-2026.
The facility will be able to host high-density workloads, and the site features a 2N substation design with dual 66kV feeds transformed on-site by Vernon Public Utilities.
“At LAX01, Goodman has drawn on its planning capabilities, strategic sites, and proven expertise to deliver complex infrastructure,” said Anthony Rozic, CEO of Goodman North America. “What sets Goodman apart is our ability to integrate every stage of development – from site selection and power procurement to construction and delivery. With the right land, power, people, and partners, we create reliable, scalable solutions in some of the world’s most important digital hubs.”
Goodman is an integrated property group with operations throughout Australia, New Zealand, Asia, Europe, the UK, and the Americas.
The company claims to have a global power bank of 5GW across 13 cities, of which 2.7GW is secured and 2.3GW is in the “advanced stages” of procurement. It has data center projects in operation or development across Hong Kong, Australia, Germany, the US, France, and Japan. Earlier this year, the company announced plans to raise AU$4 billion (US$2.5bn) that will partly be used to fuel its data center build-out.
Goodman is one of a number of logistics and warehouse industrial real estate firms looking to move into or expand their existing presence in the data center space. The likes of Prologis, Segro, GLP, ESR, P3, and others have also looked to develop facilities across the US, Europe, and Asia Pacific. Recent reports suggested Singapore’s sovereign wealth fund GIC is considering a proposal to invest in data center assets owned by Goodman.
Los Angeles is home to the likes of Digital Realty, Centersquare, Hivelocity, Evocative, Prime, CoreSite, DataBank, Cogent, Telehouse, Lumen, and Equinix.
