Facebook planning to build $1.5 billion data center in Altoona, Lowa

Earlier this year, it was rumored that multi-technology companies, including Apple planned to erect a huge data center in Altoona, Lowa. But today, reports reaching us proves that Facebook will build a huge data center in Lowa.
According to a confirmed source, the social media giant is planning to build a 1.4 million square feet data center in the small town. The project could possibly cost Facebook $1.5 billion.
Facebook already has two data centers in Forest City, N.C. Sweden and one in Lulea, Sweden; but those two are a bit smaller  when compared to this one.
Looks to me that our Facebook likes and photos are heading to a new home.
