Construction evidence
Dated satellite imagery of the site itself, oldest to newest, with the campus milestones that landed in each window. This is what the site looked like from orbit while announcements, permits, and energizations were dated into our ledger, so bare land, grading, and building mass tell their own story alongside the paper trail. Sentinel-2 true color, 10 m resolution, cloud-free scenes; click any frame to expand it.
Dated Sentinel-2 imagery, gated to hand-verified site coordinates. Milestones synthesized from the campus's own capacity ledger, financial claims, and lifecycle events; each chip links to its source. How we source and verify it: satellite construction evidence.
Per-building manifest tied to the site polygons and imagery. When we know a building's outline we render it; when we know only its year and capacity we still surface those as first-class rows so the campus total is auditable, not a headline claim. Sorted largest-first; top 6 shown by default of 11.
Manifest totals: 3,106,626 sqft. Rolled from the per-building rows above.

Reported facts
Structured facts sourced from citations already on this record. Each fact traces to a source in the References section below.
- Fifth building / Sharka LLC / $880M (reported DCD via TDLR)
- DCD reports (Mar 3 2026) that Google, through shell company Sharka LLC, filed with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation for Sharka Data Center Building 5 at 3441 Railport Parkway in Ellis County (same address as the Midlothian campus): one-story, 288,000 sq ft, estimated $880 million including core/shell, interior finish, and site work, with construction begun late January 2026 and completion targeted February 24, 2027 (DCD, Mar 3 2026)
- Campus history / acreage (reported DCD)
- DCD states Google first built in Midlothian in 2019 via Alamo Mission LLC under project name Sharka, originally buying 375 acres and later another 165-acre tract, added a fourth building in 2024 (about $100 million, 170,600 sq ft), and launched a Texas cloud region in Dallas in June 2022. Treat acreage and prior building costs as journalist summaries of filings/press, not Google IR totals (DCD, Mar 3 2026)
- Texas AI/cloud expansion context (reported)
- DCD notes that in November 2025 Google said it would spend $40 billion to expand cloud and AI infrastructure in Texas through 2027, including Ellis County expansion plus new campuses in Armstrong and Haskell Counties. Separate from that commitment, DCD mentions Google backing a TeraWulf/Fluidstack Abernathy project and a Wilbarger County site with AES onsite clean energy. Prefer not to assign any share of the $40B figure solely to Midlothian (DCD, Mar 3 2026)
