Opposition and litigation at this site
Nothing on record as of September 13, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over 365 Data Centers Detroit (DT1) in Southfield, Oakland County, Michigan appears in the sources this registry tracks. That is an absence in our sources rather than a finding that none exists, and local opposition often predates any coverage a national dataset would pick up.
If you live near this site and something is happening that this page does not show, that is worth telling us. Send us the document and it goes in the record with the source attached. For sites where opposition is already established, see every contested site we track.
Power and water
The 0.75 MW figure is a 750 kW on-site diesel generator for backup/emergency power only (per the operator's own spec sheet), not primary or supplemental grid generation.
Notes on the record
Standalone 12,000 sq ft colocation retrofit facility with a 160-ton cooling plant, 12-inch raised floor, and 3x203kW UPS units for AC customer backup (365datacenters.com spec sheet, retrieved 2026-09-13). A total facility power-capacity figure of ~4.5MW appears on third-party aggregator/broker sites (datacenterhawk, inflect) but was not confirmed against a primary source this session, so capacityMw is omitted rather than guessed. Coolant/water system details were not stated on the pages fetched, so `water` is omitted. Originally built in 2000 as a Switch & Data facility, acquired by Equinix in 2010, and sold to 365 Data Centers in November 2012 (per baxtel.com).
