Denver's Elyria-Swansea battles new CoreSite data center amid environmental and community concerns

Residents and organizers in Denver's Elyria-Swansea neighborhood are fighting against a new data center being constructed by CoreSite, saying the facility threatens a community already burdened by decades of environmental harm. The community is demanding transparency on the data center's energy load, water use, and generator plans, as well as safeguards to prevent the facility from supporting mass surveillance and deportation systems.
