Summary
Nashville’s buzzing over a controversial new data center slated for land right next to the zoo—developers want to sell 23 acres for a 50-megawatt facility, sparking fierce backlash from locals, environmentalists, and even the zoo. Protesters are chanting “people over profits,” warning of environmental risks and grid strain, while city leaders weigh a potential pause on new data centers and even eminent domain. With a July 7 vote looming, the debate isn’t just about tech—it’s about what kind of city Nashville chooses to become.
