CoreWeave Bastrop

CoreWeave is a specialized GPU cloud computing provider and the named Building 1 occupant at the EdgeConneX data center campus in Cedar Creek. County and state records identify CoreWeave as the tenant for the first building on the 166-acre EdgeConneX site.

What CoreWeave Does

CoreWeave operates one of the largest GPU-accelerated cloud platforms in the United States. The company provides compute infrastructure purpose-built for AI training, machine learning inference, visual effects rendering, and other GPU-intensive workloads. CoreWeave’s clients include AI research labs, film studios, and enterprise customers who need massive parallel computing capacity.

Relationship to EdgeConneX

EdgeConneX is the developer and operator of the Cedar Creek campus. CoreWeave is the tenant, meaning EdgeConneX builds and owns the physical data center infrastructure while CoreWeave fills it with GPU servers and operates the computing workloads inside.

This is a common model in the data center industry. The developer (EdgeConneX) handles construction, power, cooling, and physical security. The tenant (CoreWeave) handles the computing hardware and customer workloads.

Why This Matters for Bastrop County

• CoreWeave is a named entity in public records but has had no dedicated page on this site until now. Residents searching for “CoreWeave Bastrop” or “CoreWeave Cedar Creek” deserve a factual landing page.
• GPU cloud infrastructure is the specific type of computing that powers AI training for companies like OpenAI, Meta, and others. The Cedar Creek campus is not a generic data warehouse. It is purpose-built for the most compute-intensive workloads in the industry.
• The tenant relationship means CoreWeave’s presence validates the EdgeConneX campus as a Tier 1 facility. Major GPU cloud providers have strict requirements for power density, cooling capacity, and network connectivity.

Tax and Revenue Context

CoreWeave’s tax contribution flows through the EdgeConneX campus structure. The EdgeConneX project operates under a Chapter 312 property tax abatement agreement with Bastrop County. The abatement terms and revenue projections are documented on the EdgeConneX project page.

Status

Under Construction. Building 1 is part of EdgeConneX Phase 1, which is actively under construction on the Cedar Creek campus.
