Data Center Project Tallmadge Proposed in Strasburg, Virginia
Project Tallmadge is a proposed data center campus on 77.682 acres in Strasburg, Virginia, with an estimated construction timeline from 2027 to 2030. The plan involves two data center buildings totaling 993,136 square feet and includes critical infrastructure like generator yards and a substation.

Takanock Inc. plans to develop a data center campus in Strasburg, Virginia, covering 77.682 acres. The proposal includes two data centers of 496,568 square feet each, generator yards, and a substation area.
Construction is projected to employ around 400 workers, with permits anticipated mid-2027 and completion by 2030. The site will utilize a closed-loop cooling system, requiring approximately 4 million gallons for initial fill and minimal ongoing water use.
The project aims to mitigate community impacts, and Takanock has submitted a water application for 4,000 gallons per day. Approval from the Shenandoah Valley Electric Cooperative for the electrical connection is pending, as is the air permit from the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality. The project may offer tax incentives through Shenandoah County, but the town lacks an economic development authority to provide direct benefits.
