iPark 84 Tenant Expansion (East Fishkill, New York)

Proposed 150 MW expansion of an unnamed tenant's data center at iPark 84, East Fishkill, New York; no local application, under a three-year town moratorium.

Proposed, in grid queue. The expansion is in a NYISO grid interconnection request (proposed 2028 in-service); no town application was filed as of June 2026. East Fishkill's three-year moratorium (June 2026) covers a 150 MW project unless it gets an economic development special permit.
