About the Business
- Years in Operation

- Employees
- 5
- Facilities & Assets
- The region is actively served by multiple fiber internet providers, with ImOn Communications, Lumen (CenturyLink), and LISCO all expanding fiber coverage in the area. Preliminary feasibility suggests future dark fiber access is achievable.
- Market Outlook / Competition
- Located in a low-latency, fiber-served Midwest zone with limited competition for power-available, hyperscale-adaptive land. Ideal for edge, colocation, or GPU compute facilities. High-acreage footprint, utility proximity, and entitlement flexibility create a rare deployment-ready alternative to congested Tier I markets.
- Opportunities for Growth
- The 36-acre site supports phased data hall development, power scaling, or hybrid cloud edge deployment. Vacant wings allow for white space retrofit or anchor box demolition. Initial discussions with the city have been positive regarding rezoning for digital infrastructure, with potential eligibility for renewable energy integration or state-level tax incentives.
