Allentown residents get first look at plans for Emmaus Avenue data center. Here is what we learned
Developers presented plans for a proposed data center in south Allentown to the city's planning commission, facing fierce opposition from local residents concerned about noise, energy prices, and environmental impacts. Quantm Group LLC aims to convert an approved warehouse site into a 75-megawatt data center, arguing it would be preferable to the warehouse use and mitigate community concerns. The Planning Commission did not vote on the proposal but offered feedback, and a new land development application is expected.
