More fuel is pouring into the data center boom in North Texas.

Dallas-based Prime Data Centers has $3 billion plans to build three two-story facilities near Aledo and Chapin School roads in southwest Fort Worth, as well as three in the Dallas suburb of Garland, the Dallas Morning News reported. Each facility will span 267,000 square feet, with Gensler handling design for both projects. 

The company is developing a data center campus in North Dallas as well, having delivered one building, with one more nearing completion. Prime’s Dallas campus is off Interstate 35, at 1515 and 1517 Round Table Drive. 

The Fort Worth campus is expected to support 48 megawatts of power and cost more than $1.5 billion to build, according to state filings. Construction is slated to begin in September, with a targeted completion date of early 2026. 

Prime’s Garland campus will be located along Arapaho Road, between Garland Avenue and Holford Road. Although specific wattage details were not disclosed in the filings, construction costs are projected to surpass $1.3 billion. Construction is expected to commence in July and be completed in early 2026.

Prime Data Centers’ expansion mirrors a broader trend in Dallas-Fort Worth, which has more than 5.6 million square feet of data center space and millions of additional square feet in the pipeline.

Notable players in the region include Dallas-based Aligned Data Centers, which is spearheading a massive campus in Plano and recently received a $600 million loan from New York-based Blackstone Credit & Insurance to support an 80-megawatt campus in West Jordan, Utah. 

In addition, Blackstone subsidiary QTS Data Centers is embarking on a $220 million project in North Fort Worth, and Google is gearing up for a $600 million data center south of Dallas.
