Conflicts and open questions
- Land price differs: $52.5 million (AJC, deeds) vs $53.5 million (DCF).
- Build status after 2024 not confirmed in a citable source; a tracker lists it under construction for 2027.
- Distinct from the Palmetto/East Point campus in microsoft-east-us-3.
- (folded from duplicate record edgeconnex-ta-union-city) MW figure differs: 324 MW at announcement vs. 202 MW in the operator's 2026 data sheet.
- (folded from duplicate record edgeconnex-ta-union-city) Data sheet date is the month in its URL path (2026-07).
- CommercialSearch described a site of nearly 63 acres, versus about 136 acres in AJC and Data Center Frontier; acres kept at 136.
- Possible overlap: the AJC placed this tract close to Microsoft's Palmetto campus, which is in existing record microsoft-east-us-3; editor should confirm it is not counted twice.
