Is a Data Center Coming

Gloucester County, NJ

American Tower Mount Royal Data Center (withdrawn)

American Tower Corporation. Withdrawn. 4 MW.

American Tower Corporation proposed a small, 15,895 square foot, 4 megawatt edge data center on wooded land at its existing cell tower site on Mantua Road in the Mount Royal section of East Greenwich Township. The plan drew a petition with more than 5,800 signatures and formal opposition from the New Jersey Sierra Club, and American Tower withdrew the application on June 9, 2026, canceling the scheduled hearing. East Greenwich Township then adopted its own ordinance banning future data center development in response to the fight.

What it would mean nearby

The cooling design has not been reported. If it uses evaporative cooling, a 4 MW facility would draw roughly 13,000 to 46,000 gallons of water a day, about what 100 households use.
