DC Hub does not hold a lease-rate figure for this market yet.
Duluth operates five tracked facilities with ARK Data Centers holding two sites and First Properties operating one; no recent deal activity has been recorded in the market registry. The regional backdrop includes sustained public support for the Google data center project in nearby Hermantown, endorsed repeatedly by the Duluth Area Chamber of Commerce. The market sits within Minnesota's broader data center corridor, where peer markets like the Twin Cities have seen select acquisition activity—DataBank purchased an Eagan facility and leased a Minneapolis site from Mapletree Industrial Trust—but Duluth itself remains transaction-quiet.
This combination indicates that new power procurement here faces structural headwinds. Together, these scores reflect a market environment where bringing new power online requires longer negotiation cycles and higher coordination overhead than markets with tighter supply-demand balances.
Operator concentration remains modest: five facilities tracked across two known operators leaves room for new entrants, yet no recent deals have materialized to test market appetite. ARK's dual presence indicates some institutional confidence in the market, but the absence of lease, acquisition or power-purchase announcements in recent months suggests deal flow has not accelerated. The semantic matches to nearby DataBank activity in Minneapolis and Eagan highlight that capital and operator interest remain active in the Twin Cities metro, but have not yet translated into recorded transactions in Duluth proper.
