Google Data Center GBL1

Google Data Center GBL1 opened in 2009 and covers a mapped footprint of 23,914 square meters, according to OpenStreetMap, which lists it under that name. Among listed facilities in Belgium with a recorded opening year, it is one of three, with none opening earlier. Google operates the site, and the facility sits 0.18 km from Google St. Ghislain, Belgium, also operated by Google, which is the only other listed facility within 5 km. Google has two listings in Saint-Ghislain, four across Belgium, and 115 in total, with other listed Belgian locations in Farciennes and St. Ghislain, each holding one listing. The operator's nearest other sites include Google Farciennes in Belgium, Google Datacenter Middenmeer, Google Datacentre Waltham Cross, Google Dietzenbach in Germany, Google Groningen in the Netherlands, and Google Hanau in Germany. The record identifies this entry at the building level, with a published location marking its accuracy, though no status has been recorded for the facility.
