600 acres near Interstate 80 and North 56th Street; 2 million square feet

Originally known by code name 'Agate' before Google's public confirmation. Construction and supporting wastewater infrastructure remained active in May 2026. Will support hundreds of construction jobs and dozens of full-time positions.. 10/11 NOW reported on May 7, 2026 that Google was expected to pay for a $10 million dedicated underground wastewater pipeline carrying cooling-water-system wastewater from the Lincoln data center to the Northeast Water Resource Recovery Facility, with construction slated to begin in mid-May; this wastewater-line cost is supporting infrastructure rather than total data center investment.
