Yeah, with the demise of 111 8th as a carrier hotel, Halsey seems to be becoming a default for many. My prediction is that you won't have trouble getting to who you want to there. Thought I would be nice to have another facility outside of Manhattan as an alternate point in which to congregate. On Sun, Feb 18, 2018 at 11:54:28PM -0500, Dovid Bender wrote:
While dealing with DR is not always fun in this case it isn't their fault. The building management is the one creating the issues. I used to have no issues and now every time it seems like there are new rules to get in. Over all it seems that everyone has high praise for 165 Halsey so I will start there.

I will generally prefer the smaller operators in a market for many reasons, but most relevant to this situation is that they simply don't have the market power to be jerks. They may want to be nice, but they have to be nice, else people go elsewhere.

We do not have all of the carriers you can get at 60 Hudson but we do have many at 365 Data Centers at 65 Broadway and I can guarantee you won???t have the headaches from 60 Hud, and you can probably save money. Let me know if you have any interest and we can discuss your requirements so I can get you a quote.
Best,

We have space with Digital Realty (aka TELX) and 60 Hudson and lately it's been a nightmare getting in. The real estate management company is having us reconsider our options. They are giving us the option to have ID badges for our employees but for anyone else that wants access we need to request it 48 hours in advance to get approval. So if we plan on having an unexpected outage and we need to have a have a vendor come on site (e.g. a Dell tech) we will need to let them know in advance.
What are peoples experiences with 111 8th and 165 Halsey? We really like the connectivity options at 60 Hudson but at some point the hassle becomes not worth it.
