notes: >
  Operator is Switch, which has no operators.yml entry — operator field
  omitted; Switch needs an operators.yml entry. Site id derived from the
  distinctive proper name (Switch Pyramid) plus locality since no operator id
  is known. building_sqft = 1,800,000 is planned white space across the campus;
  first phase (converted Steelcase Pyramid) is 225,000+ sq ft. investment
  reported as ~$5 billion (approximate). capacity 320 MW, basis unspecified.
  Operational and expanding (GRR NAP 02 expansion underway). Single-source
  (DataCenter Dynamics) → medium.
