Over the years, the increase in Internet use and projections for future Internet use caused a boom in the construction of data centers. Data centers house and link the servers and other hardware that form the backbone of the Internet. And many companies and states want a part of the action. Minnesota, for example, passed a bill during its special session giving tax exempt status to “qualified” data centers. There was a time when the construction of data centers could not keep up with demand, but now the data center space may have reached a peak.
