St. Georges Business Park & Lighthouse Farms
St. Georges, New Castle County, DE
St. Georges Business Park & Lighthouse Farms is an announced data center project in St. Georges, DE, backed by Parkway Gravel Inc. The project is sized at 300 MW. Landowner Parkway Gravel Inc. filed plans (revised Nov 2025, via engineering firm Verdantas) for a 3.2M sq ft development off US Route 13 near St. Georges/Middletown (New Castle County), replacing the Frightland Halloween attraction and adding 150-155 homes; filings state data centers need less parking than other industrial uses, implying data center as an intended use, but no data center tenant/operator has been named. The 300 MW figure matches a Delmarva Power New Castle County project size in FOIA'd records reported by technical.ly; coordinates are from secondary tracker Compute Atlas, used only to supplement this already-sourced project. Still in the proposal/filing stage, not under construction. [Reviewed 2026-10-09: verified] New Castle County planning records and credible news sources (Spotlight Delaware, Delaware Business Times) confirm Parkway Gravel Inc. filed revised plans in November 2025 for a 3.2M sq ft development with data center language in parking justifications, though no data center operator has been named.
