A startup’s plan to build a $100 million data center in the Columbia River Gorge has collapsed after public sentiment coalesced against the project.
A newly formed business called Roundhouse Digital Infrastructure had proposed building a data center in a vacant industrial building at the Port of Cascade Locks, about 40 miles east of Portland. Roundhouse had sought a 25-year lease and said it would host other companies’ data and provide technology services at the site.
