Pretty sure Northern VA (datacenter alley) is doing pretty great?
Doubt they had to bend over backwards. This is one of dozens (hundreds now?) datacenters in the area.
The difference these days is that they now come with power plants in the parking lot. Otherwise they tend to be pretty quiet all things considered other than when backup generators are fired up during testing or power outages.
Cooling can be moderately loud, but the noise rapidly drops off with distance.
