EdgeCore data center campus in Eastmark, Mesa
Also called: EdgeCore PHO1
EdgeCore plans two large multi-story data center buildings on part of a 90-acre site in southeast Mesa. It shrank the plan by about 40% so SRP could expand its substation. The site sits in Mesa's data center corridor along Elliot Road.
Where things stand: Mesa's planning board approved a smaller plan (1.2 million sq ft) in March 2026 to make room for an SRP substation.
🕒 Latest update (March 11, 2026): Mesa Planning and Zoning Board approved cutting the project from 2.1 million to 1.2 million square feet.

Local votes and rules

📜 Data center rules
City council unanimously passed data center zoning rules, in effect Aug. 8, 2025. Data centers need council approval, may only go in industrial zones, must be 400 feet from homes and no taller than 60 feet, and must do an early review of power and water use.
