  1. If it’s a water cooled data center (most are) they better do the research on water availability. It’s pretty limited in the Brownsburg/Pittsboro area. A single data center can consume up to 5 million gallons of water per day.

  2. They’ll just extend the pipe headed for the LEAP district….or drain Eagle Creek. Water for others isn’t the issue…its can we build another large power consuming structure built by out of state firms that provides a few permanent, moderately paying jobs, using state and local tax breaks. Few jobs, big buildings, AI industry will think Indiana, and Central Indiana, is a really cool place.

  3. Sweet! Because of Lucas Oil Stadium, Grand Park, the Palladium, and the two arenas in Noblesville and Fishers, central Indiana wins another economic development coup.

  4. Another data center? About as exciting as another call center. What data centers need is a lot of land and resources, but not that many people who are getting more “modest” paychecks. The real talent, real money, real brains behind such massive projects are on the coasts. They’re looking for cheap. Let’s not get TOO excited about this as some state and local leaders do. Central Indiana is turning into a true back-office kind of economy. Data centers, just like the giant and often-empty warehouses that have sprouted up in so many farm fields, gobble up real estate, energy, but deliver little in the way of good-paying jobs and corporate, educational and cultural enrichment.

    1. David gets it. I’ve asked for months for anyone to explain how data centers lead to economic development, how they’re good for anyone but utility companies.

      They’re automated distribution centers for information. At least they don’t tear up the roads with semi traffic, but they also don’t need very many local workers.
