Cedar Rapids, Iowa, United States
QTS Cedar Rapids is an AI data center under construction with AI chips owned by . In Q4 2027, we project it to host an estimated 3,669k H100-equivalents of compute, supported by 1,133 MW of IT power at a capital cost of $42.9 B.
The timeline of IT power and compute capacity is based on satellite imagery, our cooling equipment power model, chip availability, and grid operator data.
The estimated Phase 1 power matches a 616 MW load request filed by a QTS shell company, though the full two-phase plan would need more than double that.

Land clearing begins for Building 1-3.
Building 1 roof complete, with air-cooled chillers in place. Building 2 and 3 roofs are partly completed. Building 4 and 5 have a foundation.
Based on satellite imagery, the Buildings 1-3 shells look complete. Buildings 4-6 are far along, with roofs largely in place, while the eastern Building 7 foundation is well underway. No buildings operational yet.
Similar to April, Buildings 1-3 shells look complete. Buildings 4-6 are still far along, and the eastern Building 7 foundation is still underway.
Buildings 1-3 are operational. Based on the expected completion date reported by local news: “A QTS spokesperson said in July [2025] that the first phase of the project was expected to be completed in late 2026."
Buildings 4-7 are operational. Based on the expected completion date reported by local news: “A QTS spokesperson said in July [2025] that [...] The second phase is expected to be completed in late 2027."
