Google Midlothian Data Center Campus
Overview
TYPE3’s map data lists Midlothian as Operating at 200 MW, announced in 2019 and operational in 2021, with city-level coordinates. Google’s Texas locations page lists Midlothian and Red Oak as its two Ellis County sites and identifies Midlothian as the first Texas data-center investment. That history distinguishes the original Railport campus from the later Red Oak sibling.
TDLR-based reporting describes Sharka Data Center Building 5 as a one-story expansion of about 288,000 square feet at Railport. The project is estimated at $880 million, began construction in early 2026, and has a submitted completion target of 24 February 2027. Coverage names 3441 and 3800 Railport Parkway and describes core, shell, interior finish, and site work. Cost, area, and a submitted date are not megawatts or proof of current Building 5 operations.
The 200 MW map data value is an unconfirmed estimate, not a Google disclosure. Modeled IT-power figures from aggregator directories are outside the cited evidence. The evidence supports an operating campus and a filed Building 5 expansion while keeping Red Oak separate and leaving site MW undisclosed. The filed Building 5 expansion belongs to the operating campus and does not create a separate Google location; its completion remains prospective for this campus.
