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
DAMAC Digital announced a community forum on its planned Canton data center (two buildings and a substation on 80+ acres NE of Trump Ave SE & Orchard View Dr SE); a residential demolition permit had been issued earlier in 2026.
Underlying source - Proposed
Listed as proposed, 225 MW, air-cooled (closed loop), among four proposed Canton data centers.
Underlying source
Source notes
Land: DAMAC Digital Solution Ohio LLC bought the site from AIDC Canton 2 LLC (linked to Active Infrastructure) for $36.5M in Dec 2025 (CREW; CREW places it in Canton Township; the land was later annexed into Canton per an earlier Stark County Auditor lookup, parcel 10020089 on Trump Ave SE — a lookup not repeated as of October 2026). Site 'over 80 acres' per the Repository. 225 MW is a single-source figure (Repository, Oct 9 2026); no MW on DAMAC's own page; DAMAC's ~2,000 MW national target is entity-wide and not used. Investment (reported elsewhere as >$1B) and the construction/opening timeline were not confirmed on a page read directly as of October 2026 and are omitted. The record is listed as proposed per the newest source (Oct 9) even though a Jul 28 Repository piece says plans are submitted and dirt is being moved. Coordinates: the OSM intersection node of Trump Ave SE and Orchard View Dr SE (Overpass, node 200032979); the site lies NE of that corner, so the pin is approximate (likely within ~0.5 km). Distinct from the 312 MW Midwest Digital Gateway (Central Avenue SE, Canton) at Millerton St / Central Ave SE: the Oct 9 Repository lists the two as separate projects with different developers, sites and MW; aggregator listings that label a DAMAC site 'Midwest Digital Gateway' conflict with this and were not used.
