It's Jane Street's only datacenter. not the only one in NYC. As they explain, they chose to specially locate their datacenter.

Yeah I didn't read the article in detail. It's the NYC that threw me off. And I didn't feel like it was that weird an concept, after all the real estate in NYC is super premium priced, not exactly prime datacenter country. I'm surprised there are many (like I said 33 Thomas St used to be just a phone exchange which used to be much bigger than they are now due to the mechanical tech involved).
