There's a lot of them in high rise buildings... but they come with high rise rent.

Imagine if one of the amenities in a high-end residential building could be a cabinet haha! That would be amazing. Doesn't make economic sense, but I'd love it. Would love to explain that to my wife. "I know that one has the pool, but we can rack my servers in this one if we live there".

Something here about water usage, a small data center, and a swimming pool. Combining the three may either be awesome or tragic!

I like this idea. A small cage in an apartment complex would be a huge selling point.

Or even a La La Land on the corner, urban DC in the back. Winning across the board.

Swimming pool? The cooling can be for a hot tub!
