Source-reported capacity; not metered consumption. Review underlying documents and notes. Planned capacity may include future phases and is not added to operational capacity here. The source may use facility, grid-feed or IT capacity definitions; consult the linked documents.
Coordinate precision is a source label, not an independent parcel survey. A marker does not confirm utility territory or establish an effect on residential bills.
Reported lifecycle history
- Proposed
Corscale proposing a 312 MW hyperscale campus on ~162 acres near Millerton St SE and Central Ave SE; still must pass Canton planning, zoning and development review.
Underlying source
Source notes
Project specifics (developer, name, 312 MW, ~162 acres, $2.9B, AWS described only as 'likely customer' with no lease confirmed) rest on a single trade-press source, hence the record is marked reported. That article also says ~163.5 acres were annexed into Canton from Canton Township; Spectrum's Jul 2026 zoning story quotes a resident on a proposed 161-acre center but does not name the project, so it corroborates scale only. Coordinates are the Nominatim centroid of the City of Canton (no street address published; the site is in SE Canton near Millerton St SE / Central Ave SE, so the pin is several km off), hence approximate. Unresolved: (1) aggregator listings attribute 'Midwest Digital Gateway' to DAMAC Digital; the Stark County Auditor record (parcel 10020089) shows DAMAC DIGITAL SOLUTION OHIO LLC bought an 8-parcel package from AIDC CANTON 2 LLC on 2025-12-31 for $36.5M, but that parcel is on Trump Ave SE, not Central Ave SE, so DAMAC's holding looks like a separate site (Spectrum mentions a data center 'being built on Trump Ave'), not this record; (2) Panattoni's 'Project Shelby' (324 MW, former Ford forge site south of Georgetown Rd NE, Aug 2026) is a different NE-Canton site and is not this record. As of October 2026, the developer/owner of the Central Ave parcel is not confirmed against Stark County Auditor transfers (buyer reportedly 'MDG-Canton Purchaser LLC').
