Project timeline

Source notes reproduced from Epoch AI. Future projections are excluded. Status may have changed since the latest observation.

  1. Construction has advanced significantly since February 2026. We observe extensive earthworks and multiple graded building pads across the campus, with structural work underway on the main data center buildings. A large solar array and water storage basins are visible on site, and two cleared areas on the western side of the campus, likely for on-site power generation. No buildings appear operational yet (no completed roofs or signs of active cooling), consistent with the projected 2028 completion.

  2. Land clearing continues, foundation construction begins 2 of the main buildings (Building B & D). Construction also beginning on modular chiller plants.

  3. Construction and land clearing begins
