Approximate location — The city places the 280-acre project in UMore Park directly east of Dakota County Technical College. No street address, parcel identifier, or coordinate is asserted.
Physical scale: The City of Rosemount's 2024 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report describes a 280-acre project and a 715,000-square-foot data center under construction. These are source-reported project figures, not surveyed current built area, commissioned IT space, a building count, or capacity.

What the sources support

The City of Rosemount's current water-supply FAQ says the data center in Rosemount is under construction, and the city's development page crosswalks Bigfoot/Jimnist to Meta. The city's 2024 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report describes the 280-acre Meta/Jimnist project as under construction. The University of Minnesota Office of General Counsel says the 280-acre sale to Jimnist closed December 29, 2023, identifies Meta Platforms, Inc. as Jimnist's parent, and says a data center was being constructed on the property. This supports construction on the current municipal statement; it does not establish completion, energization, operation, tenant use, or continuous progress.
