Amazon (AWS) Massachusetts data-center acquisitions (Grafton & Westborough)

Status: operational · Confidence: medium

Facts

Signal notes

Single acquisition of two distinct former State Street data-center properties in two Worcester County localities: (1) 8 Centennial Drive, Grafton — ~155,000 sq ft; (2) 600/800 Friberg Parkway, Westborough — ~99,150 sq ft. Investment ($26.7M) is a combined figure for both properties; no per-building price is sourced, so it is recorded only at the combined record level. building_sqft omitted as a single metric to avoid conflating two buildings; per-building approximate figures are above and are editorial ~ values from the source. locality omitted because the record spans two localities (Grafton, Westborough); the id place therefore falls to their shared county (Worcester) per the precedence rule. Acquired Nov 2022; no development plan disclosed — status recorded as operational as existing data-center facilities, but current use under Amazon is unconfirmed. If per-property signals arrive, this should be split into separate Grafton and Westborough records.
