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
5365 Crown Dr, Lockport, NY — confirmed as a genuinely separate building (~0.25 mi from H5 Buffalo I / 5319 Enterprise Dr, not a duplicate listing), part of the same Lockport campus. Built 2015 as part of a $170M expansion announced 2013 (the campus's second facility). Acquired by H5 alongside Buffalo I in the same Dec 2024 Yahoo sale-leaseback deal. Specific square footage and power capacity for this building alone are paywalled on data-center directories and not independently confirmed — deliberately omitted rather than estimated from the shared 409,200 sq ft campus total (which spans both buildings). Coordinates are a nearby-offset approximation of the campus location, not an independently confirmed parcel pin for this specific building. The county parcel lookup behind this record used street number 5365, while PeeringDB and the street recorded here give 5369 Crown Drive; both are on the same campus road.
Second Lockport building, brought online in 2015. Data Center Knowledge (2015) describes the expansion as having "7.2 megawatts of hydropower", alongside the original 15-megawatt data center; as of October 2026 the article does not name NYPA or say the 7.2 MW is an allocation.
