Google files for second LaGrange data-center building valued at $1 billion

KDC filed a Georgia Development of Regional Impact application on July 27, 2026, for a proposed second data-center building at Google’s LaGrange campus. The filing places the project at 411 Pegasus Parkway in LaGrange, in Troup County.

The proposed building would contain 470,000 square feet and is valued at approximately $1 billion. KDC filed the application on behalf of the property owner. The building would join an existing data-center building at the site.

The application is a proposal, not a final approval. The available reporting does not establish that LaGrange, Troup County or another government authority has approved construction, and it does not provide the filing’s review timetable.

Construction could extend through 2029

If the project moves forward, construction could continue until 2029. The filing also described future phases as speculative, so those possible additions should not be treated as committed projects.

That timeline gives the proposal a potentially extended footprint in local planning. Residents, commuters, workers and local businesses may have questions about how construction would interact with land use, traffic and public services. The filing and available report do not establish a specific traffic effect, job count or permanent staffing level.

Utilities remain an open question

The proposed expansion also puts attention on the capacity needed to support a large data-center campus. The available reporting does not establish the building’s water demand, power demand or expected tax revenue. Those figures cannot be inferred from the project’s size or stated value.

LaGrange’s fiscal records separately show a $3.7 million Georgia Environmental Finance Authority loan for wastewater-treatment belt-press replacement and related upgrades. That utility investment is relevant context as the city considers growth, but it is not evidence that the new data-center building has been approved or that the loan is tied to the project.

What happens next

The known next step is the regional-impact application process. The packet does not identify a review deadline, construction start date or final local decision.

For now, the confirmed change is the filing itself: KDC has submitted a proposal for a second building at 411 Pegasus Parkway. The project’s value, construction schedule and future phases remain subject to the process ahead, and several practical effects for LaGrange—including utilities, traffic, staffing and public-service capacity—remain unresolved.
