Yes, many Telsas seen in Lake Mary. Altamonte is nice but we need one here!

In the Austin-San Antonio area Tesla Owners Club forum, Art visited the under-construction Boerne Stage Road Supercharger location ("Leon Springs, TX" to us) where the construction crew was present. Art says:
Perhaps the crew is headed to a new Jacksonville location?
Since all the work appears to be done, I stopped by today to see if it was ready. Not so fast. One of the contract workers said City and Tesla inspections were still required and it could be 3 more weeks!? The estimated ready time varies widely depending on whom you ask. The worker I spoke with said they had 50 more superchargers to install and were now heading to Jacksonville Florida.

Two sites have been found at Wawa locations in Florida in the last couple of days. Perhaps keep an eye on Wawa sites in Jacksonville?
If Google Maps is accurate, there are two new ones (in the western part of the city) being built that might be worth passing by!

Just passed Yeehaw Junction service plaza and saw a whole new row of what appear to be non Tesla fast chargers across from the existing Superchargers. They still had some shrink wrap on them and were a different color and design so I’m pretty sure they aren’t Tesla chargers. I caught a glimpse from the turnpike as I blew by so that’s all I got.

A new one coming to Orlando as part of a larger development:

I don't really understand the need for more superchargers in the middle of large cities. IMHO, superchargers are for Travelers, and should be placed outside of major cities. I also believe that, long term, there should be a couple of Superchargers at each Interstate Highway rest stop. There are plenty of superchargers in Orlando, we need one on the Space Coast and other roads that cross the state.

Tesla’s marketplace is expanding and city apartment folks often need supercharging capability.
FWIW: Tesla has down a great job in Florida I’m expanding the network and with re: to the Southeast just needs to place one in the Charleston, SC area.

There is a supercharger under construction in Titusville. Florida Tesla Enthusiasts - Titusville Supercharger Station discovered under construction at Target (Public)

When the Supercharger network began it was exclusively for travelers. However, with the growth of the Tesla fleet, we are now at the point, as Charles (X Fan) mentions, where consideration should be given to people living in multi-unit dwellings (MUDs) where to date it can be difficult to get permission to install charging equipment. About 30% of Floridians live in MUDs, this is a lot of people. Tesla recognized this issue and designed the more compact Urban Supercharger terminal and started installing them in population centers.
Regarding exchanging Superchargers at rest stops, this has started on the Florida Turnpike.
Fast Charging & Supercharging Stations will be added at the Florida Turnpike service plazas (Public)
As Paul (pdeinselen) points out Tesla just broke ground on the Titusville Supercharger Station at Target. The work is progressing rapidly.

Charles,
I agree. Tesla has always done a good job in expanding the Supercharger network, but recently they have definitely picked up their pace. I think that you will be pleased in the near future regarding Charleson.

Hope the Suncoast Parkway and/or 19 gets one. Nothing between Tampa and Tallahassee other than a hotel charger.
On a side note, Tesla really needs a service center for the rapidly growing Gainesville/Ocala area. Jacksonville is way too far away.

Your forum name is reflected in your lifetime average (or vice versa). After 138,000 miles my lifetime avg is 295kWh! I can see that you gave "absolutely no thought to energy conservation".
Not sure if you have seen the recently updated maps, but the good news is there is a site planned in Crystal River and one for Perry. This definitely opens the Route 19 option for travel from the Tampa / St Pete area to Tallahassee. I prefer that route for my trips to Tallahassee for FSU games (if we ever have those again!!!!)

Updated Tesla Map shows 2 new supercharger locations in Palm Beach County. The one on Lake Worth Rd, is probably at that new Wawa, not sure about the downtown one.
