Reports put the value of EdgeConneX-associated data-center filings in Cedar Creek, Texas, at $5.8 billion. The available records reviewed here do not show a single calculation that reconciles that exact total. They describe several filing groups at different FM 535 addresses, with construction estimates that are not evidence of money spent, completed buildings, energized power, or operating capacity.
What the $5.8 billion figure means—and what it does not
$5.8 billion is a reported headline aggregate, not a verified sum that can be reproduced from the project values described in the available records. The sources identify multiple groups of proposed buildings, but do not establish which filings were included in the headline or explain any additional amounts or adjustments.
The distinction matters: a filing’s estimated construction value is a planned-project figure. It does not show that the developer has spent that amount, that construction is underway or complete, or that the facility has power or is operating.
Which Cedar Creek filing groups are reported
The filings discussed below are associated with different project numbers and addresses along FM 535. They should not be treated as one campus total without a clear rule for which buildings and entities count.

| Project group | Address and reported scale | Reported construction estimate and schedule | Disclosure limits |
|---|---|---|---|
| EDCAUS11/12 | 6682 FM 535. Texas AI Docket lists 729,537 square feet for each building. Its filing summary describes each as a one-story data center with an automatic sprinkler system. Texas AI Docket | $700 million per building. Data Center Dynamics reported a proposed June 2026 start and December 2028 completion; those are schedule estimates, not confirmation of progress. Data Center Dynamics, June 3, 2026 | The cited registration summary does not disclose tenant, IT load, cooling design, or rack density. The area is the filing-summary figure, while later reporting rounds it to about 730,000 square feet. |
| EDCAUS11–14 | 6682 FM 535. The September 2026 Texas AI Data Center Intel Hub overview describes four buildings at about 730,000 square feet each. Texas AI Data Center Intel Hub, updated September 27, 2026 | The overview assigns $700 million to each building. It does not provide a construction schedule in the cited summary. | Tenant, IT load, cooling design, and rack density are not disclosed in the registrations, according to the overview. |
| EDCAUS15/16 | 6402 FM 535. A September 2026 tracker item describes the pair; individual building areas are not stated in that item. Texas AI Data Center Intel Hub, September 2026 tracker | $1.2 billion in filed construction for the pair, as reported by the tracker. | This amount is secondary tracker reporting; the cited item does not establish a tenant, IT load, or schedule. |
| EDCAUS31/32 | 6543 FM 535. Data Center Dynamics reports two buildings at 577,000 square feet each. Data Center Dynamics, August 27, 2026 | $700 million each, with a reported October 2026–December 2028 construction window. The dates are scheduled estimates, not evidence of actual construction status. | The report says the filing itself does not explicitly establish the EdgeConneX association; it relies on prior local reporting and the naming convention. |
Why the listed amounts do not verify $5.8 billion
The reported figures do not add up to the headline on their own. Four buildings in the EDCAUS11–14 overview at $700 million each produce a simple total of $2.8 billion. Adding the tracker’s $1.2 billion for EDCAUS15/16 and the reported $1.4 billion for EDCAUS31/32 gives $5.4 billion—not $5.8 billion.
That arithmetic is only a comparison of reported estimates, not a verified campus valuation. The sources do not explain whether the headline includes other filings, uses a different set of buildings, or applies an adjustment. Until the included records and calculation are clear, the precise $5.8 billion total remains unreconciled.

No disclosed IT capacity for these filing groups
The cited summaries do not provide IT load or power capacity for the newer EDCAUS filing groups. Bastrop Fiber also cautions that capacity reports for multiple Cedar Creek clusters can conflict and says the newer filings’ power capacity is not disclosed. Building area and construction estimates are not a basis for inferring megawatts, rack count, or operating capacity. Bastrop Fiber
AUS01 figures do not describe the Cedar Creek filings
EdgeConneX’s April 2025 Austin data sheet describes AUS01 as planned for a 96 MW first phase by 2027 and 336 MW of initial potential. Those figures refer to AUS01, a separately named project, and do not establish capacity for EDCAUS11–16 or the other Cedar Creek filings. EdgeConneX Austin Data Sheet, April 2025
Public records do not resolve the EDCAUS11/12 entity relationship
For EDCAUS11/12, Texas AI Docket says the building filings name Burr Computer Environment Inc. as property owner. A separate registry entry names EdgeConnex MCN Austin Property 5, LLC as owner of record and EdgeConnex MCN Austin Operations 5, LLC as occupant/operator. The cited page does not explain how those entities relate, so the names should not be collapsed into a single legal owner. Texas AI Docket
Quick Recap
What to check before treating the headline as a project total
- Which project numbers and street addresses are included in the $5.8 billion figure?
- Does the total sum filing estimates, and are all amounts stated on the same basis?
- Are the projects legally or operationally connected, or merely nearby filings associated with the same developer?
- Have later records confirmed construction, expenditures, power delivery, or operating status? Filing values and scheduled dates alone do not answer those questions.
