There has to be SOMEBODY who knows at least VAGUELY what this is supposed to be.

There have to be architects, engineers and so on associated with the project, and those people have professional histories.

Admittedly, this is like trying to find the link between 'Automated gene sequencers shipped to a Costa Rican island' and 'Literal dinosaurs' but somebody must know SOMETHING.

In a dream last night, I imagined that it was a Tesla battery factory or something.

    Horvath and Durand City Manager Colleen O'Toole both declined to divulge the industry or type of plant the prospective company wants to build.

    "What I can say is I think this particular project — as it's been presented to us — is going to be pretty much like nothing else anyone's ever seen," O'Toole said. "There's not going to be anything else it like in the world."

Right, but there has to be a publicly accessible document somewhere that has engineering/architectural credits for any planned structures. That could tell us something about what's planned. Though it seems like a foregone conclusion it will be a new Foxconn plant.

Not at this stage. Even for occupancy, none of the materials handling components need to be on the drawings or documents.
