About this count
This page counts the major projects the Census has researched and sourced: 7 as of Nov 6, 2026, including 1 cancelled or denied. It does not yet include every smaller colocation or enterprise facility, so the total number of buildings in Missouri is higher. We add projects as they are announced or found in public filings.
