Globalfoundries behind 'Project Azalea'?

What's this? Was Globalfoundries behind "Project Azalea," codename for a huge chip foundry, all along? Or has that shoe yet to fall with another announcement in the near future that would boost the technology momentum of New York State?
I did speculate a few weeks ago that if a semiconductor company was behind Project Azalea and its plan to build a multi-billion foundry in the U.S. --most likely in New York – then the sponsor could only be one of very few players. It looked then like the evidence was to pointing to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.
