Miller Road is the line of separation between long-standing residential and the data center boom taking over the New Albany community. At left is the Bermuda Drive development and at right is a data center being built so quickly that it does not have real walls, just a tent-like structure surrounding the computer servers. There are no signs denoting which company will be using these servers, but a similar set of buildings in the area has been identified as a Facebook facility. Photographed Friday, April 24, 2026.
