On November 8, Australian real estate developer Stockland confirmed that it has scrapped plans to build a data center within a large logistics park project in Sydney following opposition from local residents, though the broader logistics development will still proceed. The project is being developed in partnership between Stockland and John Boyd Properties on a former golf course near Sydney Airport, spanning nearly 2 kilometers and adjacent to Cooks River, Sydney Airport, and Port Botany. Announced in 2025, the project was originally planned for integrated logistics and commercial facilities. Earlier this year, Stockland proposed including a data center as a potential development use, which subsequently triggered opposition from local residents. The company stated that it will continue to engage with relevant stakeholders in subsequent planning.
