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.

Source notes
1101 Beech Rd SW, New Albany — operated via Google's Ohio subsidiary Montauk Innovations LLC. 275,000 sq ft initial building on a ~440-447 acre campus. $600M confirmed initial capital investment; 100% real-property tax abatement (15yr) and 100% sales-tax exemption (~$43.5M value, 15yr) granted. Distinct from Google's Lima "Project BOSC" facility (different county) and Google's Lancaster campus (tracked separately as of July 2026). No IT-load MW figure publicly disclosed. In June 2025, the same Montauk Innovations entity acquired an adjacent 85-acre parcel at 2565 Harrison Road NW (~4 miles north) for $63M; Google has not confirmed this parcel will become a data center ("we want to ensure we have the option to further grow, should our business demand it" per a spokesperson) — as of July 2026, tracked as a note here rather than a standalone facility pending confirmation. No AI/HPC-specific marketing found — Google's own materials describe this and its other Ohio campuses generically as cloud/digital infrastructure. County-auditor parcels confirm the campus straddles the Franklin-Licking line: the operational, data-center-classed parcel is in Franklin County (5266 Babbitt Rd, 222 ac, Montauk Innovations LLC, acquired Dec 2018 for $27.4M), extending east across the line into Licking County at 1101 Beech Rd SW (219 ac; ~441 ac combined). The coordinate is now parcel-exact to the Franklin operational parcel.
