Microsoft Confirms Plans For Michigan Data Center

Microsoft on Wednesday confirmed it is the company pursuing a proposed 237-acre data center site beside Interstate 96 in Lowell Charter Township, Michigan, after weeks of local speculation. The company said it asked the seller to pause rezoning while it consults with residents; the development could entail $500 million to $1 billion in investment over three to five years, with a planning commission hearing set for Jan. 12.
