But I was told that the ITP boom was over.

I'm surprised it hasn't gotten it's own thread yet. This is a massive deal. I think by the end of the expansion, they'll add at least 10k jobs....I mean they're building an entire campus. It sounds like with the 90+ acres they've bought, they're going to try to build out their own mini-city...like a Microsoft land so to speak with offices, housing, etc.
