Underlying source
Source notes
Omaha's carrier hotel: a nine-story, ~75,000 sq ft facility with around 8 MW of capacity at 1623 Farnam Street downtown, home to the OmahaIX internet exchange and some 60 carriers. News Press & Gazette Co. subsidiary Berks Group acquired Nebraska Data Centers and the 1623 Farnam carrier hotel in 2018 and established 1623 Farnam LLC, so 'Nebraska Data Centers' as an operator name is historical, not current. Build-out history: a $10 million expansion in 2019 built out the fifth floor, floors six through nine were added in 2021, and the final two data halls completed in June 2025 added 1.5 MW of IT capacity and space for 280 racks. CEO Bill Severn cites 'significant demand from AI workloads, edge deployments, content platforms, and broadband networks'. The company is separately planning an OMA2 campus expansion explicitly aimed at AI and edge infrastructure growth, with no site, size or date disclosed on its own page; it is not listed separately as of August 2026. DCD also reports the facility serves Trump Media & Technology Group; DCD attributes that tenant claim to other reporting, and it is not otherwise recorded. The recorded capacity is the ~8 MW total, not the 1.5 MW increment; no investment figure is recorded, because the only sourced amount is the $10 million 2019 fifth-floor expansion and, as of October 2026, neither cited source gives a total site investment. Coordinates are a street-address approximation.
