American Tower Pauses Plans for Edge Data Center in Indianapolis, Indiana

Feb 06, 2026 | Posted by Abdul-Rahman Oladimeji

US tower and data center firm American Tower has dropped plans to develop an Edge facility at a telecoms site in Indianapolis, Indiana.

The single-story building would have totaled 4MW on seven acres of the 53-acre property. The company was planning to use a closed-loop cooling system and not require any additional electrical infrastructure. The site is already home to a 1,000-foot (304.8 meter) broadcast tower and a two-story, 4,400-square-foot support building, both of which would remain in place.

“American Tower would prefer to review the project after this process has been completed. Although we are not advancing this particular proposal, our decision reflects a desire to ensure that any future initiatives align with both local connectivity needs and community priorities,” the company said.
