No permit record shows it yet, so this page prints it as announced. Compute Atlas (Jul 18, 2026) reports it as proposed. ### Who is building Meridian Technology Park? Eagle Rock Partners is the operator. No public record names the general contractor yet. It shows here the day one does. ### Which carriers serve Meridian Technology Park? No public record names them yet. They show here when a filing does. ### How do contractors on Meridian Technology Park get paid sooner? The owner pays the general contractor, and the general contractor pays its subcontractors. Once your customer approves your invoice, certify it with Kapwork. Funders compete to fund it, so you don't wait for the payment date. Free for businesses. Kapwork doesn't lend and doesn't contact your customer. ## Latest updates - **Jun 16, 2026:** [Reported as announced](https://mlq.ai/news/eagle-rock-partners-proposes-88b-1gw-data-center-campus-in-christian-county-illinois/) ## Related records - [Eagle Rock Partners Colleton County Data Center Campus](https://kapwork.com/grow/directory/datacenters/eagle-rock-partners-colleton-county-data-center-campus-sc-dc_c47ceea34e95): Same operator - [Pairmont Data Center Campus](https://kapwork.com/grow/directory/datacenters/pairmont-data-center-campus-va-dc_f57617294525): Same operator - [Project Boulder](https://kapwork.com/grow/directory/datacenters/project-boulder-sc-dc_55fda8d231bf): Same operator - [Aligned Coal City Campus](https://kapwork.com/grow/directory/datacenters/aligned-coal-city-campus-il-dc_f0695145cb9f): Same state - [Aligned Data Centers - Elk Grove Village Campus](https://kapwork.com/grow/directory/datacenters/aligned-data-centers-elk-grove-village-campus-il-dc_b4ca4e6c9abb): Same state - [Aligned ORD-03](https://kapwork.com/grow/directory/datacenters/aligned-ord-03-il-dc_99090f8d970b): Same state - [CenterSquare ORD2 - 2425 Busse Road](https://kapwork.com/grow/directory/datacenters/centersquare-ord2-2425-busse-road-il-dc_1d2848d9c7fb): Same state - [CenterSquare ORD4 - 4513 Western Avenue](https://kapwork.com/grow/directory/datacenters/centersquare-ord4-4513-western-avenue-il-dc_7123cf2ad8c1): Same state ## What this record does not show - This record is the Kapwork Grow tracker's merged view of a facility, from the tracker snapshot built 2026-11-02.
