NorthPoint Development explored building a data center at the 45-acre former chemical plant site at 1200 Graphics Drive in Modesto, California.
While private lobbying efforts sparked significant community backlash over potential water and energy usage, a formal development application was never submitted to the city. Modesto's current zoning codes prohibit data centers, and the property is instead slated to house a 215,973-square-foot warehouse for Pepsi.
