VAN WERT, Ohio – Van Wert is one step closer to establishing a data center on the city’s eastern side.
Thor Equities purchased 221 acres of land from the Marsh Foundation along US 30. The sale price was not disclosed, but Thor Equities’ CEO told industry insider Data Center Dynamics that the site will be used to expand the data center market and that, due to its prime location and existing utilities and infrastructure, the Van Wert site is “a rare and valuable asset for the data center industry.”
Thor Equities will develop the property, but it is unclear which company will operate the data center. That information may not be released until 2026.
