Source notes
Developer (Mount Sunflower Properties LLC / Beale Infrastructure, backed by Blue Owl) has pre-leased the entire campus to an unnamed large technology company. Attorney described the tenant as among 'the strongest, most financially profitable companies in the world.' Four buildings of 285,000 sq ft each (1.14M sq ft total); full build-out in 7–9 years. Kansas's first announced hyperscale data center. Permanent job figure of 100 is sourced from Johnson County Post ('over 100 long-term jobs paying six figures'); DCD separately cited 50 operational jobs for the first phase only. Coordinates are De Soto city centroid; exact site is at NW corner of 103rd St and Edgerton Rd.
