Microsoft halts construction on portions of the $3.3B Mount Pleasant campus

MOUNT PLEASANT, Wis. (CBS 58) -- Microsoft has halted construction on aspects of its multibillion-dollar data center in Mount Pleasant.

But it`s unclear why.

The company told CBS 58 they are "fully on track" with construction on the $3.3 billion data center set to open in 2026, but said work has stopped on two expansion sites.

"We have expansion sites in Mount Pleasant where we intend to build additional infrastructure, and we’ve already done preliminary work for those future builds," a Microsoft spokesperson said.

RSK: I wouldn`t panic yet....this seems to be typical for Microsoft.

Ken notes: Just thinking out loud here but aren`t all the parts for a data center made outside the US????
