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.

Underlying source
Source notes
Plan to convert floors 2 through 6 of the 1927 landmarked 300 W. Adams office building into a data center, with a new ComEd vault and up to ten rooftop backup generators. Gabal says the vault would be 'no more than 50 megawatts', while the building brochure lists a 20.4 MW medium-voltage vault. These are vault figures, not IT capacity, so no capacity is recorded. Project cost is undisclosed.
