A massive warehouse conversion near Switch's Las Vegas headquarters had neighbors bracing for another data center, but Clark County officials say the construction is tied to something entirely different: a sprawling fitness and wellness facility called Life Muse. The site at 7180 Myers Street sits less than a mile from Switch's core campus on Decatur Boulevard, and that proximity is exactly what fueled the neighborhood's suspicion.
Erik Tufteland, who has lived in the neighborhood for about a decade, told KTNV he wondered what the new business could do and what impact it would have on the neighborhood, including whether a data center could eventually land there. He said he found a connection to Switch in property records, which only deepened his questions. Myers Property LLC, a Switch-affiliated entity, is listed as the property owner in Clark County records, and the parcel was purchased for $24,117,760 — about $289.60 per square foot — from seller HD Myers Arby LLC in April 2025, according to a market report from MDL Group.
County Confirms It's a Gym, Not a Server Farm
Clark County told the station that the active construction is tied to a permit to remodel the existing warehouse into a future fitness and wellness facility, and that the current construction has nothing to do with a data center. The county added that its information about the property's past ties to Switch is limited to what is publicly listed on the Clark County Assessor's website for the parcel. Switch is known for operating data centers, which is precisely why the warehouse's connection to the company raised eyebrows in the first place.
Approved plans reviewed by the county call for turning the 83,280-square-foot warehouse into a two-story, 41-foot-tall, 166,560-square-foot health club, complete with a second floor, stairs, an elevator, and an exterior deck, according to zoning records reviewed by Clark County. The project also secured development waivers reducing required loading spaces from seven down to just one. The Clark County Building Department has completed dozens of inspections at the property, and the work finished so far is following the approved plans for a fitness facility, per the same county filing reviewed for the Spring Valley Town Advisory Board.
Why a Warehouse This Big Became a Gym
Tufteland still questions the scale of the project. “I mean, it's a warehouse. Why make this massive warehouse into a gym?” he said, per the station's report. Life Muse traces back to 2020, when Switch founder and CEO Rob Roy created it as an internal corporate health, fitness, nutrition, and wellness division for Switch employees under the direction of Dr. Quinn Pauly, according to Switch's own 2021 environmental, social, and governance report. That origin explains why a data center company would end up owning a fitness brand, even one built on the scale of a two-story health club.
The Myers Street parcel has changed zoning classifications more than once. It was originally zoned Rural Estates before Clark County approved a reclassification to Designed Manufacturing in February 2022 and later to Industrial Park, according to the same Clark County filing. SR Construction Inc. currently holds an active Clark County dust control operating permit for the Life Muse buildout, valid through October 2026, per Clark County's Division of Air Quality.
Noise Worries and the Property's Rising Value
For Tufteland, the unresolved questions come down to quality of life. “Noise is basically one of my biggest concerns,” he said, according to the station's report. He said he's still not sure what the finished facility will mean for the neighborhood. “I'm just wondering what this is doing and what impact it will have on the neighborhood,” he told KTNV.
The property's assessed value has been climbing alongside the construction. Clark County Assessor records for fiscal year 2026–27 show the parcel's total taxable value rose to $11,451,146, up from $11,082,086 the year before. That increase tracks with the scale of the ongoing remodel, even though the building itself remains, on paper, a warehouse undergoing renovation rather than new construction.
Switch's Real Data Center Growth Is Happening Elsewhere
While the Myers Street site gets converted into a gym, Switch's actual data center expansion in Southern Nevada has been unfolding miles away. The company purchased 16.9 acres, part of a broader 176-acre acquisition, in North Las Vegas' Apex Industrial Park for $85.5 million in December 2025, a deal Hoodline detailed in Switch Buys 176 Acres Near Apex. That move reflects a broader shift of major data center campus growth in Southern Nevada toward North Las Vegas, even as the company pursues a wellness-focused build closer to its original Decatur Boulevard headquarters.
The Myers Street deal also landed amid a busy stretch for industrial real estate in the region. Southern Nevada industrial transactions totaled $352.3 million across 35 closed deals in the second quarter of 2025, with total market inventory expanding past 195.6 million square feet, according to MDL Group's report. Switch itself has been in the middle of even bigger financial moves this year, having entered talks in mid-2026 with institutional investors to raise capital at a valuation exceeding $50 billion, driven by demand for AI computing infrastructure.
