Stillwater Technology Park was a proposed 15-building, 3.5 million square foot data center campus on about 400 acres at 11760 Panhandle Road in Lovejoy, with a planned capacity of 1.25 GW and a stated value of up to $13 billion. Residents opposed it, citing two nearby schools and traffic. The developer withdrew the application at an August 2026 city council session and now plans housing, and the council banned data centers citywide in late September.
