The Freedom Center: A Strategic Infrastructure Revival in South Florida

Eliakim Capital is proud to be instrumental in the transformation of The Freedom Center, a landmark infrastructure project redefining South Florida’s role in global connectivity, artificial intelligence, and enterprise compute.

Located in Sunrise, the Freedom Center occupies a rare position at the intersection of broadcast-grade resilience, hemispheric connectivity, and AI-era compute readiness. Formerly home to HBO Latin America, the facility is now being reimagined as a next-generation data, media, and power-forward campus designed for organizations that cannot afford uncertainty. Working alongside Data Power Supply, Eliakim Capital has supported the strategic positioning, infrastructure vision, and market alignment of the campus—ensuring the site is not merely modernized, but purpose-built for the demands of the next decade.

Reviving Broadcast-Grade Infrastructure for the AI Era

The Freedom Center was originally engineered for hemispheric broadcast operations—built to standards far exceeding conventional commercial data facilities. That foundation remains intact.

Rather than stripping the site down to commodity colocation, the redevelopment strategy preserves its broadcast DNA while layering in the systems required for modern AI, HPC, and enterprise workloads. This includes:

• Hardened electrical infrastructure designed for high-density compute

• Modular environments for scalable GPU and enterprise deployments

• Integrated media and transmission capabilities rarely found in data centers today

This approach reflects a broader shift Eliakim Capital sees across infrastructure markets: future-proof assets will be those that combine power certainty, connectivity depth, and operational intent—not just square footage.

Power Certainty as a Strategic Asset

At the core of the Freedom Center is a 4 MW dedicated live power system, distributed across dual hardened buildings on a secure 6.5-acre campus.

The electrical architecture operates at N+1 redundancy across all critical systems, with a defined engineering path to N+2. Backup resilience is reinforced through dual generator systems with independent fuel and feed paths—designed to remain live through regional outages and extreme conditions.

In an era where power availability increasingly dictates where AI and enterprise compute can exist, the Freedom Center offers something rare: verified, expandable power with long-term certainty, not speculative future capacity.

A Hemispheric Connectivity Nexus

Few facilities in the United States combine terrestrial and satellite connectivity at this scale.

The Freedom Center’s connectivity profile includes:

• Carrier-neutral Tier-1 fiber with diverse routing

• Low-latency westbound paths to Los Angeles

• Southern routes through NAP of the Americas into Latin America

• A fully operational on-site satellite teleport with active uplink and downlink

This hybrid architecture positions the campus as a true hemispheric bridge, enabling resilient operations for media networks, AI platforms, global enterprises, and infrastructure providers serving both North and Latin American markets.

Built for Modern Compute and Media Workloads

The campus offers immediate and scalable deployment options, including:

• Over 70,000 sq. ft. of raised-floor data halls

• An additional 50,000 sq. ft. of flexible build-out capacity

• Liquid-ready cooling for GPU-dense and AI training workloads

• Retained broadcast suites and dark rooms for live production, encoding, and streaming

This convergence of compute and media infrastructure makes the Freedom Center a rare hybrid—capable of supporting AI model training, real-time content production, and mission-critical enterprise operations within a single environment.

Strategic Location, Long-Term Advantage

South Florida continues to accelerate as a global infrastructure gateway. The Freedom Center’s proximity to major fiber routes, satellite pathways, and international carrier ecosystems gives tenants a strategic foothold at the edge of two continents.

For organizations deploying AI, media platforms, or regulated enterprise systems, this translates into:

• Faster cross-hemispheric data exchange

• Direct access to international network backbones

• A resilient base for expansion into Latin America and the Caribbean

Eliakim Capital’s Role

Eliakim Capital’s involvement in the Freedom Center reflects its broader mandate: identifying, structuring, and advancing infrastructure assets that sit at the convergence of power, technology, and capital.

This project exemplifies how legacy facilities—when properly re-engineered—can become strategic platforms for the AI and connectivity-driven economy now taking shape.

The Freedom Center is not simply a data center. It is infrastructure with intent—designed to connect computation, communication, and commerce across an entire hemisphere.

The Freedom Center is now engaging select tenants and infrastructure partners.
