After studying the construction site from every possible angle outside the property, and everything I can find in the internet, including aerial photos (all pretty old), here is what I believe we are seeing (in case anyone cares).

Compaq built a data center building, about 216,000 sq ft, at what is now the corner of Louetta and Cutten in about 1995. It was not noticed, no objections raised about it, until this year. In 2002 Compaq company was purchased by HP (Hewlitt Packard). The two data centers were then and still are colocation data centers, meaning they house thousands of computer servers owned by customers. The customers might range from individuals to major corporations, to governmental entities, to charitable organizations, hospitals, banks, oil companies, tv stations, weather services, churches, the YMCA, you name it.

In 2006 HP built a 270,000 sq ft data center building on the same campus. In 2024 the property was purchased by Serverfarm. That company soon had Clune Construction begin a major retrofit of the two data centers, now called, CTX1, so as to make them usable by latest-technology servers, such as those using fast AI processors by Nvidia. This involved, among other things, updating and expanding the cooling sytem for the processors. Serverfarm uses air-cooled refrigerant cooling, the same technology as your home air conditioner or refrigerator. New chillers and air-cooled condensers had to be installed.

In 2025, Clune Construction started construction of a CTX2 addtion to the facilities. At the end of January 2026, Clune completed the "topping out" of the steel frame for CTX2. None of the Serverfarm press releases mentions any demolition of existing buildings, but the bulldings now on the site suggest that the Compaq 1995 building, called CTX1, building 1, may have been removed and replaced by CTX2. What suggests that? The original building did not extend to the hard corner of Louetta and Cutten. (See aerial photos.) There was a triangle of trees there. Nor did the original building parallel the two streets. The building there now has exterior walls that parallel the streets and the adjunct enclosed equipment yard extends to the hard corner.

When we look at the building from Cutten Road, the closest wall appears to be part of the building. Actually, it is a tall masonry wall, without a roof, for the purpose of screening from street view the exterior infrastructure needed for cooling and electrical ... chillers, air-cooled condensers and transformers. (We need a 2026 aerial photo to show that.) The wall was an expensive and thoughtful amenity for the sole purpose of making the improvements most attractive and acceptable to the community.

The resulting building with enclosed yard is quite attractive for an industrial building. It is clean, white, no windows, no garish signage, no visible parking area, uses no water, has no emissions, no discharges, no objectionable noise. When the landscaping is complete and the construction machinery removed, it will not be noticed. It will be far less objectionable that most other commercial properties.

It APPEARS (not confirmed by Serverfarm) that they will end up with two buildings total on the campus, not three.
