Project Orange — Planned Lancaster Data Center Campus
Overview
Project Orange is a development record, not a commissioned data center. A City of Lancaster resolution identifies WHL Dallas 45, LLC as owner of the 116.88-acre property at 201 Sunrise Road and approves a development agreement for the Project Orange development. The associated planned-development regulations add data center as a permitted use, raise the maximum building height to 90 feet, and state that a PD site plan must be approved before building permits are issued.
Industry reporting describes the proposed campus as seven data-center buildings, each approximately 226,630 square feet, with an estimated 36 MW of IT capacity per building. That produces a reported planning total of roughly 252 MW and approximately 1.5 million square feet. The reporting links WHL Dallas 45 LLC with Prime45 Development. These figures describe a proposed design scope; they are not evidence of energized service, occupied load, utility delivery, or available colocation inventory.
TYPE3’s `Announced` and `0 MW` values are therefore a safe operating baseline, while the municipal records support a more precise owner and entitlement narrative. Lancaster and 201 Sunrise Road remain the canonical identity, Project Orange is distinct from neighboring Project Labrador, and every MW figure is estimated or planned. The appropriate conversion path is a source-dated project-monitoring or correction request, not a presales promise. Zoning approval and a development agreement do not establish construction progress.
