Where it stands

La Lupa is the project entity at Lake Mariner that receives the Core42 lease revenue. Core42 has 60 critical IT MW; the Fluidstack program (CB-3/4/5) sits separately under Akela. No passage states La Lupa's own operating status. The 60 MW is treated as in service only by inference: the campus has 102 MW online, which equals Core42's 60 MW plus Fluidstack's 42 MW CB-3 delivered in July. The campus-wide 336 MW under construction (CB-4 and CB-5) belongs to Fluidstack/Akela, not La Lupa. If this record is meant to cover the whole Lake Mariner campus, it would instead be partially operational: 102 MW operating, 336 MW under construction, 438 MW total.

Site intelligence

Analytical estimate. Each site below is located from public records (filings, releases, news, OpenStreetMap) and checked against free satellite imagery; "How we located this site" lists every step and the score it earned. The conclusion is computed from night-time lights, surface heat and year-over-year change, with the dates it rests on. These are hypotheses under active tracking, not legal parcels or an official endorsement.

Approximate address 663J+MX Warrens Corners, NY, USA Reverse-geocoded from the candidate centroid; not a permit-confirmed parcel address.
Conclusion so far We have not located the site yet. · confidence 30%
Undetermined: we have not yet located the actual site, only the town or county it is in, so imagery cannot say whether anything is running.
What would change this: A published address, parcel, coordinates or permit for the site itself.

Grid interconnection Closest 345kV substation is 12.2 mi away (Dysinger Switchyard). At this distance the project would need to build a new substation on- or near-site to deliver announced load — a viability and schedule signal, not a disqualifier.
