This is right across the street from that new Margaritaville resort. I haven't stayed there, but i've seen it pop up on Expedia.

For what it's worth, I drove completely around this Wawa on my way to work today. No sign of any construction at the moment. There's 3 areas with potential as to where Superchargers could be located. They are also building a Cheddar's restaurant immediately next door which looks to be about 2/3 complete.

An electrical permit was applied for on July 3rd for this location. It hasn't been issued yet, but I expect it likely will be in the next week or two. Once that happens, I think the construction will start very shortly, hopefully by the middle of the month.

Electrical permit: A19-004396

I drove through the Wawa parking lot yesterday and didn't see any signs of prep yet.

Spray paint markings were the first the thing I saw at the most other locations I watched from pre-construction.

One of them the first thing was a small cargo container being dropped on-site.

Drove past this site the other day. It looked like there is fencing that has cordoned off the charger area.

Saw the gates up, so I stopped and snapped a few pictures

Nice pics, thank you! Nothing to indicate Tesla yet except for the proximity to parking and the existence of the permit.

Keeping my fingers crossed. Coming down in October. This would be really convenient to our resort.

Pictures taken today. Forms for seven pedestal bases are in place. No sign of Tesla equipment. Perhaps they are in the two trailers at the back of the site.
For future reference the WaWa is accessible from the entrance road to Margaritaville which has a traffic light on Irlo Bronson. Very convenient if heading back to 429.

I swung by this morning and it appears some electrical hardware was in the process of being installed. Here's the one pic I took as I drove by:

Here's a pic from this morning. Looks like the bases are in and I assume they will be mounting the charging pedestals soon.

Your picture didn’t show up. Is any of the hardware onsite?

Thanks for the photo, my connection must have been slow and I didn’t see it.

I took a few pictures this afternoon, there was one guy working and it looks like the white box was installed.

 

[jrreno]

That white box is the distribution panel. Missing are the Supercharger cabinets and of course the pedestals. Supercharger cabinets usually come boxed in large wooden crates.
At least the transformer is there, so just missing the Tesla parts.

It looks like there is one large conduit per Supercharger. Previous installations have two small conduits. Could this be a V3 installation? Maybe that’s why the Tesla equipment hasn’t shown up yet.

No, it’s an 8 stall V2. 7 back in and 1 pull in.

The line of conduits where Charging cabinets sit are 2 per cabinet

V3 conduit runs are grouped in a 4 tubes per cabinet configuration.
