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

Data center occupies the north side of the former U.S. Steel South Works property; the adjacent 128-acre Illinois Quantum & Microelectronics Park is a separate use on the same property and its acreage is not this facility's. Coordinates are the OSM address node for 8080 S Lake Shore Drive, not a parcel-confirmed footprint.
