What the source record says
194-acre, ~2.6 million sq ft campus of three buildings (435,600 sq ft to 1.23M sq ft) on the former Air Products headquarters site at 7201 Hamilton Blvd, Upper Macungie Township.
Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.
Status history supplied by the source
- 2025-11 · source-reported proposed
Air Products proposed a 2.6M sq ft, three-building data center campus on its former HQ site along Hamilton Blvd and Cetronia Road.
- 2026-08-17 · source-reported cancelled
Project ended. The Upper Macungie Township Zoning Hearing Board rejected Air Products' request to establish a data center on the 194-acre former headquarters property in a decision issued July 2026 (after a May 27, 2026 hearing). Air Products let the August 5, 2026 appeal deadline pass without appealing; spokesman Art George confirmed 'Air Products has decided not to pursue an appeal of the Upper Macungie Township Zoning Board decision.' No decision has been made on future ownership or use of the property.

Compute Atlas 1.34.1 with retained prior rows and publication holds. This is a DataCenterData composite, not an unmodified publisher edition. This row uses the captured source from 1.34.1, source as of 2026-10-14T20:40:52.293Z.
That does not mean the row is wrong, and it does not mean no reviewed record exists for the same place. A link is added only when an identifier or source establishes the match.
