QTS Realty Trust Inc., a Kansas-based data center developer, plans to acquire a roughly 281-acre site near the planned Loudoun Gateway Station in Loudoun County, Va., for $80 million, the Washington Business Journal reported, citing sources privy to the matter.

The purchase of the Washington Dulles Gateway is anticipated to close in October, the report added.
