Memphis Water Plant in Limbo

Memphis City Council is left in the dark about the Colossus Water Recycling Plant as xAI’s $80 million greywater facility stalls — despite closing on land last month, construction hasn’t started, and council members worry the city’s buyback clause only covers the land, not the infrastructure. With a 12-month deadline looming, the city may reclaim the site — but not the plant — if progress doesn’t happen by next May. Meanwhile, xAI paused construction to focus on a second data center, now leased by Anthropic, leaving officials hopeful the wastewater project will still come to life.
