Conflicts and open questions

  • No street address was confirmed in an opened primary source or credited reporting; coordinates are set near central Edina.
  • DCD (2021, 2023) says MSP1 and MSP2 together have about 106,000 sq ft, most of it at MSP2 (Eagan).
  • DataBank's Oct. 2026 release says it runs four Minneapolis-area data centers but does not list them by name; DataBank's MSP1 page was not opened, so evidence stays 'reported'.
