What the source record says
Officially named 'LAX5' on Centersquare's own current site; 'LAX2' is a deprecated Evoque-era code for this same building that persists on some aggregator pages. Capacity corrected to 17.3MW (Centersquare's current disclosed figure) from a stale/legacy 15MW aggregator figure. Centersquare = Brookfield's April 2024 combination of Evoque Data Center Solutions + acquired Cyxtera Technologies assets. No AI/HPC-specific marketing found for this building specifically (only portfolio-wide language). Distinct building from Centersquare's other Irvine facility, LAX3 (17836 Gillette Avenue), approximately 0.7 miles away - same operator, not the same campus. First Orange County, CA facility tracked in this dataset.
Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.
