Pittsburgh International Race Complex Acquired for $50M by Data Center-Linked Firm
Wampum I LLC has purchased the Pittsburgh International Race Complex for $50 million, raising concerns about potential data center development. The acquisition signals a shift in land use that may affect local residents and utilities.

Wampum I LLC finalized the purchase of the Pittsburgh International Race Complex for $50 million in March 2026. The 400-acre site, which ceased operations in 2025 after over 20 years, has raised concerns among locals about its future use, particularly regarding the possibility of a data center development.
Residents are seeking assurances on utility costs related to increased consumption that such facilities typically incur. The former owners, Jim and Kathy Stout, announced the closure without revealing future plans, citing a non-disclosure agreement.
Local officials hinted at large developments but provided no specific details. Recent observations of land clearing have heightened local anxiety regarding the site's transformation.
