Opposition and litigation at this site

Nothing on record as of September 21, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over DataVerge Brooklyn (Industry City) in Brooklyn, Kings County, New York 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.

A new status, a permit, a reception finding, or a lawsuit. Nothing else, ever.

Notes on the record

Carrier-neutral colocation at Industry City, Sunset Park, the operator describes it as the only carrier-neutral data center in Brooklyn. Operator states 50,000 sq ft with 40,000 sq ft of raised floor plus 35,000 sq ft available for expansion, 1.75 MW of diesel backup generation and a 3,000-gallon fuel tank; carriers include AT&T, Charter, Cogent, Crown Castle, Lightpath, Lumen, Verizon, Zayo and Zenfi. IT load capacity is not published, so capacityMw is unset. The OSM building still carries the facility's former name, ColoGuard, which is what pins the location exactly.
