Proposal for $1 Billion Data Center Campus on Former McDonald Steel Site
DATA AND AI INFRASTRUCTURE
A proposal for a data center campus valued at over $1 billion is being developed on more than 300 acres of former industrial land in McDonald, where the McDonald Steel Corp. site once operated. The owners are acquiring additional land to support the project, with demolition of existing structures currently in progress.
This site previously functioned as U.S. Steel Corp.'s McDonald Works until its closure in 1980 and later housed McDonald Steel until 2024.
