This site has been ready since late April but is still inoperative. Any guesses why?

Why is it taking so long? I've seen other charging stations built and operational much faster. Is it the mall that is delaying things or is it the city?

I'm at Las Americas now, nothing visible

Wohoooo! Yes!

Isn't that bad for battery?

I hope they can get a deal with Parkway Plaza, That would be a great location

True, not on 5 or 805 freeways, but pretty close. The San Ysidro SC that's been "coming soon" for years should be closer to the main freeways for Mexican adventures. I've seen some new non-Tesla chargers at the Las Americas Outlets but no sign of anything Tesla as of yet.

Maybe they should consider the Parkway Plaza mall in El Cajon. They have 4 VOLTA chargers and plenty of parking spaces available
