# 2024-11 GROOT LLC Acquires the Bollinger Road Site
In November 2024, [[GROOT LLC]] acquired the Bollinger Road farmland that would become the Project Pyramid data-center site from the Bollinger family and [[Bollinger Bros Inc]].
## Sources
- [[Project Pyramid Site Property Record Card]] — ownership records on the parcels (PRC.pdf pp. 1, 7, 9): deeds 2024/04835 (*"BOLLINGER BROS INC TO GROOT LLC"*, $18,773,130), 2024/04838 (*"BOLLINGER BROS INC TO GROOT LLC"*, $16,514,694), and 2024/04837 (*"BOLLINGER MICHAEL O TO GROOT LLC"*, $400,000).
## Significance
GROOT LLC paid roughly $35.7M in recorded consideration to assemble the ~1,117-acre site — the transaction that converted long-held Bollinger-family agricultural land into a single controlled parcel group. It is the start of the documented Project Pyramid land chain and the point at which the data-center developer (operating as GROOT LLC) took control of the site.
