Is a Data Center Coming

Loudoun County, VA

Bridgefield Tech Center

Amazon Data Services. Filed

Amazon filed a by-right site plan on July 28, 2026 for four two-story data center buildings totaling more than 800,000 square feet on the former George Washington University Virginia Science and Technology Campus in Ashburn, which Amazon bought for 427 million dollars in March 2026. Because the filing is on the administrative, by-right track, it does not require a Planning Commission or Board of Supervisors vote, which has drawn opposition from Loudoun Supervisor Juli Briskman and local residents, including George Washington University students, who are organizing to force public review. This is a distinct site from the existing tracked Spring Valley Tech Park on Evergreen Mill Road.
