Alton Steel site eyed for major data center project
Terawatts is proposing to redevelop the 381-acre former Alton Steel site in Alton into the Riverbend Technology Center, beginning with a 200-megawatt data center and potentially adding four more blocks. The proposal requires a use determination and rezoning approval from the City of Alton, while residents are raising concerns about power use, water consumption and the project's scale.
