Comment on Google Has Spent $21 Billion on Data Centersparent

Yes 10ms does matter, but building a data center in the middle of NY vs 20 miles outside is not going to create anywhere near 10ms latency, its not even going to create 1ms, on the Google network at least. Your cable provider is a far higher source of latency.

Depends on where the Meet-Me centre of the city is - it might even be that building.
