No permit record shows it yet, so this page prints it as announced. Compute Atlas (Sep 10, 2026) reports it as approved. ### Who is building Project Baccara? Takanock, LLC is the operator. No public record names the general contractor yet. It shows here the day one does. ### Which carriers serve Project Baccara? No public record names them yet. They show here when a filing does. ### How do contractors on Project Baccara 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. ## Related records - [Project Baccara](https://kapwork.com/grow/directory/datacenters/project-baccara-az-dc_c53ff523bf3d): Same operator - [Project Tallmadge](https://kapwork.com/grow/directory/datacenters/project-tallmadge-va-dc_a4ca3fd5def7): Same operator - [Takanock Goshen Data Center](https://kapwork.com/grow/directory/datacenters/takanock-goshen-data-center-in-dc_8bb1d7e094ec): Same operator - [491st Avenue and Thomas Road Data Center / Solar Site](https://kapwork.com/grow/directory/datacenters/491st-avenue-and-thomas-road-data-center-solar-site-az-dc_6807cc95a338): Same state - [5C Data Centers Phoenix Region (PHX01)](https://kapwork.com/grow/directory/datacenters/5c-data-centers-phoenix-region-phx01-az-dc_68e878c50193): Same state - [AWS Laveen Data Center Campus](https://kapwork.com/grow/directory/datacenters/aws-laveen-data-center-campus-az-dc_739b54c3160f): Same state - [Aligned Data Centers Phoenix Campus](https://kapwork.com/grow/directory/datacenters/aligned-data-centers-phoenix-campus-az-dc_1cf898266884): Same state - [Aligned PHX-13](https://kapwork.com/grow/directory/datacenters/aligned-phx-13-az-dc_a85cfbe2ff01): 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.
