Albany Data Center Battle | Real Estate News
Description
A massive $2 billion tech campus project is brewing in Albany, New York, as developer EKG Group pushes to rezone 76 acres of blighted land at Kenwood Commons for light industrial use — complete with data centers, labs, offices, housing, and retail. But hurdles loom: a statewide data center moratorium under consideration, community pushback favoring affordable housing, and the financial reality that subsidies may be essential for housing viability. The developer promises no strain on city utilities and sees the project as a chance to revitalize a once-damaged site — all while state regulators wrestle with how to manage the booming data center industry.
