Project Atlas is a data center campus proposed by CDE Acquisitions LLC, an Edged affiliate, on about 410 acres along North Cedar Crest Boulevard in South Whitehall Township, Lehigh County, which it plans to buy from Jeras Corporation. A 2026 revision cut the plan from six data center buildings to three of about 492,000 square feet each, plus an administration building and a warehouse, about 1.5 million square feet in total. Generators sit behind noise-attenuation walls, and a 12-foot landscaped berm screens the on-site substation. The planning commission took the plan under advisement in September 2026, and the township's decision deadline is now December 31, 2026.
