Both properties feature 3-phase electrical service, whole-building generators, multiple elevators, and institutional-grade infrastructure.

MARKET CONTEXT — NORTH LOUISIANA AI CORRIDOR

North Louisiana has attracted over $50 billion in announced data center investment, creating an unprecedented demand surge across the region.

Meta broke ground in January 2025 on one of the largest AI data centers in the country in Richland Parish, approximately 30 miles east of Monroe. Originally announced at $10 billion, the project has grown to an estimated $27–30 billion investment with approximately 4,000 construction workers currently on site. Monroe, as the region's largest city, is the primary beneficiary of the resulting demand for housing, hospitality, dining, and professional services.

In February 2026, Amazon announced a $12 billion investment in data centers in northwest Louisiana, expected to create 540 direct jobs and over 1,700 indirect jobs. A third major project — a $10 billion data center in West Feliciana Parish — is also underway.

The impact on Monroe's downtown is already visible: sales tax collections are up 10% year over year, new hotel developments are accelerating, American Airlines has added flights to Monroe Regional Airport, and out-of-state developers are pursuing adaptive reuse projects in the CBD for the first time in decades.
