Conflicts and open questions

  • The Star Tribune article on the Eagan project shows no date on the page that was opened, so it is cited only for the address, investment and incentives.
  • Building size: 87,400 sq ft (DCD 2026) or 88,000 sq ft (DCD 2021). Power: DCD reported 20 MW of capacity in 2021 and said in 2026 the site launched with 5 MW in 2015; no current MW figure is set.
  • DCD (Sept. 2026) reported the purchase as DataBank exercising a lease option for about $9.81 million, with closing expected in Q4 2026; DataBank's Oct. 1 release says it has acquired the building.
