    Yeah, It's pretty awesome. I went by there the other night and the Tesla logo's were all glowing red. Brought a warm spot to my heart. :)

    Supercharger - Topeka, KS

    Perhaps it got lost in the discusisons above, but the transformer can be seen in the most recent picture on the right. Also I went down and talked to the installers yesterday evening and they had a Model S out charging. I asked if they were commissioning and testing things. They indicated they...

    Supercharger - Topeka, KS

    I headed down there a few minutes ago and it looks like they're mainly cleaning up and put in the small amount of landscaping. They'd just bought some mulch and shrubs at the Home Depot in the same parking lot. The parking spots themselves have the construction fencing pulled back from them. It...

    I know it's mundane to "watch charging", but I'd love to come see it in use if you wanted to give a heads up when you're headed to Top City. Would like to document one of the first charges on it (post commissioning by Tesla and contractors).

    You probably already figured this out, but it's not quite ready yet. Here's a few more pictures showing progress. Cottonwood thanks for the pictures. Hadn't noticed their specific placement of the transformer. Looks like this one is closer to the Westward charging stations. Your comments got...

    Supercharger - Topeka, KS

    You can see them installing the second bank of 4 Superchargers on the West side of the properties. They've got the fence around the transformers/ inverters almost done. I didn't want to get in the way, so I didn't check what was going on in the trenches.

    I've heard it'll be open in October, so it can't be too long from now. I'll try and head down there over lunch and catch a few pictures.

    My first road trip,

    You could always take Highway 24 out of KC to bring down the speeds and see something more scenic!

    Supercharger - Topeka, KS

    I would agree, but it sounded like cjc9er had made contact with someone specifically, so if I could bypass explaining what all we're talking about and just get a status update, it seemed a bit more efficient.

    @cjc9er, Who'd you talk to at the permit office? What was the phone number of the office you called. I could check back with them from a local perspective.

    The Topeka SuperCharger will be on the Wanamaker corridor. It will be to the north end of the Wanamaker strip. This is if talks with the shopping center it'll go in works out. This is from as close to the horses mouth as can be.
