8. I literally heard a story on my local news radio this morning about residents pushing back against a proposed datacenter
Tue Nov 18, 2025, 07:55 AM
Yesterday

It was related to this earlier story (from Oct.) - Conshohocken Residents Push Back on Proposed AI Data Center

The plan was apparently to repurpose an abandoned steel mill and build an AI data center on the site.



More on that effort -

The application was not heard during their last meeting in October and was on the schedule for yesterday - https://www.plymouthtownship.org/data-center-update/

The latest update that I heard this morning was that the initial developer pulled their submission.

I live about 6 or 7 miles from there.

(side note - this is the 3rd try at this as I kept running into the Cloudflare outage impacting DU )
