Brightseat Tech Park is a county-planned five-building proposal on the former Landover Mall site. The planning case and county moratorium improve status and applicant provenance, but the 820 MW remains unclassified project context and no facility-specific water, wastewater, utility-service, energized, generation, or IT-load record was found.

Prince George's County's planning case remains pending and describes Brightseat Tech Park as a proposed five-data-center technology park; a 2026 county resolution pauses new data-center application review. The reviewed records do not identify a tenant, facility workload, hardware or training/inference split.
Brightseat Associates LLC is the planning applicant and the Lerner/Tower affiliate is identified as developer context; the current county case record still lists the certificate-of-adequacy case as pending. The county's two-year moratorium is a permitting constraint, not workload evidence. The five-building description, 4.1 million square feet and reported $5 billion investment are project context, not workload capacity. Keep workload, hardware and allocation unknown.
Source review September 9, 2026: the dataset reports a $5 billion project-cost lead, but no reviewed source establishes completed spending, a public subsidy, tax abatement, PILOT, or other public-money award. Those agreement and incentive records remain unresolved.
Source reviewed September 9, 2026: the county planning case identifies the former Landover Mall site and proposed five-data-center technology park, while a regional water report says the likely service provider would be WSSC Water. No reviewed source discloses cooling method, facility withdrawal, consumption, service quantity, or wastewater capacity; those records remain unresolved.
Source reviewed September 9, 2026: the county planning case lists Brightseat Associates LLC as applicant for the 86.60-acre subdivision, and Prince George's County adopted a two-year pause on accepting, reviewing, and approving data-center applications in July 2026. The dataset's 820 MW remains unclassified project context, not confirmed requested, approved, energized, generation, or data-center IT-load capacity.
