What the source record says
Google's Ohio page names Columbus as one of its three Ohio data center communities. The 2021 application ($300M, 150k sq ft, 20 jobs) describes the first building only, and the campus has since grown. Epoch's MW figures are model estimates and are deliberately not recorded as capacity. The parcel-to-S. High St link rests on matching location (south of I-270 on US 23) and the Magellan shell entity, so precision is set to approximate.
Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.

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.
