E11: Building India’s Digital Backbone with Sharad Agarwal
Mar 12, 2026 Eric Bell World
Go to PodcastAfter facing local opposition, Western Hospitality Partners (WHP) has scrapped its original "Project Lincoln" data center plan and proposed a new, smaller version.
The revised plan relocates the project to the site of the Sauerbeck Drive-in theater at 3210 DW Griffith Lane. Instead of the original eight-building campus totaling 2.5 million square feet, the new proposal is for just two buildings covering 312,000 square feet. This change also significantly reduces the estimated investment from $6 billion to about $1.5 billion.
The new location is considered more suitable because it's in an area already zoned for industrial use, positioned between a railroad track, Interstate 71, and a power plant. WHP has filed an application for a Conditional Use Permit for the development, and the current tenant, the Sauerbeck Drive-in, is expected to move.
