Videos show ‘industrial scale’ land clearing underway for $1B Lake Wylie data center

A massive construction site near Lake Wylie has transformed once-wooded land into a striking stretch of cleared ground as a $1 billion data center campus takes shape. The development, led by data center company QTS, will be a nine-building complex in York County. While supporters of the center point to potential economic benefits, some nearby residents and environmental advocates say the scale of the project and the land clearing already underway raises questions about environmental impacts and how the large industrial project fits into the surrounding community. https://www.charlotteobserver.com/news/local/article315017497.html#storylink=latest_side?utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=social&utm_source=youtube
