Nashville protesters push land owner to halt data center sale near zoo
Protesters in Nashville rallied against MarketStreet Enterprises, urging the company to cancel its land sale to DC BLOX, a data center developer planning a facility near the Nashville Zoo. Demonstrators cited concerns over pollution, noise impacting zoo animals, and lack of environmental impact studies, while DC BLOX disputed these claims and emphasized compliance with industry standards. A Metro Council vote on zoning requirements for data centers is expected soon.
