Construction research 2026-10-24: Epoch’s[1][6] 2026-03-23 observation documents remaining physical construction/installation for this named buildout. In Progress does not complete earlier operating buildings or future capacity. Power and accelerator counts remain Epoch estimates, not an operator-certified rating. Modeled 2025-dollar capital costs include compute hardware and are not a source-native construction budget. Source quote: “Steel framing and roofing is underway for Building 1.” Dated observation 2026-03-23; future trajectory rows and modeled costs are distinguished from this physical milestone.
