This is an outrageous story. A farmer donated 87 acres to a small Texas city on the condition it be used as a public park. Years later, the farmer has passed away, the city sold the land to a developer, and now it will be the site of a 135,000 square foot data center

In 1999, a farmer gave away 87 acres of land to a small Texas town to use as a park. The town sold to a data center developer for $10 million.
they are, at least, not pretending the data center will bring jobs the area.
when I spoke to the city they gave me an honest answer about why this is happening.

a really incredible story about a childhood memory of a neighbor's generosity that was true and backed up by decades old paperwork. But it didn't matter. This is the story of how 90 acres of land donated for a park was sold for $10 million to become a data center
