Is a Data Center Coming

Gloucester County, NJ

Hexa Builders Data Center (Black Horse Pike)

Hexa Builders LLC. Denied.

Hexa Builders won preliminary site plan approval in January 2026 for two warehouses totaling 1.6 million square feet on farmland along Black Horse Pike in Williamstown, which neighbors warned could later be converted to a roughly 1 million square foot AI data center. As opposition grew, Monroe Township's council passed ordinances in April 2026 removing data centers as a permitted use on the site and banning them townshipwide, then formally denied Hexa's data center and warehouse application. Hexa sued Monroe Township for more than 300 million dollars in New Jersey Superior Court on June 5, 2026, and the case was later moved to federal court in Camden.
