Switch data center completion expected in mid-summer 2024 All site work for the Switch data center under construction adjacent to the Dell Technologies campus is planned for completion next summer. In a nutshell: Bradley Dushkin, Round Rock’s assistant director of planning and development, said construction crews began work in March 2022 on the site for the future Switch data center, which is expected to be occupied by the end of 2024. The backstory: Switch is a high-performance computing technology infrastructure com- pany based out of Las Vegas, and its Tier 5 data center in Round Rock will constitute the company’s fth campus, called The Rock. Once complete, The Rock will be part of a large ecosystem of Switch campuses in Texas that will total more than 2 million square feet and 185 megawatts of power, according to informa- tion from the company.
Gattis School Road property redevelopment approved The redevelopment of a residential property at 201 Gattis School Road, Round Rock, will see a former residential property become a mixed-use development following approval from city o cials. What happened? City Council approved the rezoning of the 0.91-acre property July 13 at the request of developer Ravi Ka ey, who seeks to redevelop the property. Timelines are not yet available, and it is unclear what kind of development it will be. The takeaway : The property is adjacent to a two-story apartment complex to the west with single-family homes to the east, said Brad Wiseman, Round Rock’s planning and development services director.
The Switch data center in Round Rock will be the Las Vegas company's fifth campus.
