Overview
The Data Center is an industrial building of the Modern Era that drives production: it turns raw materials and effort into the goods, materials, and wealth that the rest of the city is built on.
As a Industrial structure, the Data Center belongs to the industrial side of the city. Introduced in the Modern Era, the age of glass and the wired grid.
Gameplay
Build cost. Raising the Data Center costs 2 Gold and 40 Energy. Plan the spend against your current stockpiles before you commit the plot.
Footprint. It occupies a 2x2 plot, so leave room on the map before you place it.
Height. The Data Center can rise to 4 floors, so its value is not only the footprint on the street but the vertical capacity you can stack above it.
Output. Once built it produces 90 Gold and 14 Knowledge each turn, feeding Gold and Knowledge into your economy.
Upkeep. It draws 18 Energy in upkeep every turn whether or not it is producing, so weigh the running cost against the benefit.
