Because a lot of destinations will have charging, but not nearly _every_ destination will have charging, not even the majority.
I would be fine if Tesla had a future map with the holes filled in, they don't.

That map is going to be hard to come by for a while. And who knows....Model 3 reservation numbers have caught everyone off-guard. They may have to look at the SC/DC strategy again as well.
Will they be using zip code info from people who've placed orders? Will they send out surveys to those with M3 reservations to try and gauge travel habits?
There are some places that they have created more questions than answers for themselves.

At least one has destination chargers. Superchargers are unlikely at any ski resort.
Loon Mountain
- 60 Loon Mountain Rd
Lincoln, NH 03251 - Charging
2 Tesla Connectors, up to 80A.
Sorry New England, not looking good for Boston or ski country in NH/ME. See captures from end of 2017 map from the Model 3 event. Doesn't look like any additional locations south of Augusta, not even the previously planned ones? There are more locations on this map up in Canada that in the 2016 map on teslamotors.com. Canada however, gets a ton of them.
edit - dedham and seabrook don't appear to be on this map. Hmmm

Don't take much stock in any Tesla maps, especially that one. If you zoom in, half of those new Canadian sites are located under the water in the Great Lakes.
We did find out about a new Canadian site today, though. 70 miles North of St. Johnsbury, VT in Magog, QC. Don't begrudge us. New Englanders are welcome to visit. This will make for 3 Quebec Superchargers for about 1,000 Model S, which is still probably a worse ratio than in 90% of states or provinces.

From a post on the Harrisburg PA page.
Anyone poke around Lee recently?

Anyone poke around Lee recently?
Her LinkedIn page mentions recent Supercharging stations at Harrisburg, PA (Union Square shopping center), Lee, MA (Big Y Supermarket), and Plattsburgh, NY (Champlain Centre mall).
I didn't see anything on the Plattsburgh or Lee Planning Board sites (Plattsburgh hasn't posted minutes since Nov '15), but a Google search of "site:lee.ma.us tesla" did turn up this gem:
http://www.lee.ma.us/sites/leema/files/uploads/planningboardmeeting20160314_0.pdf
On Monday, March 14, the Lee Planning board's meeting agenda showed "6:20-6:30 Tesla/Site Plan Submission"
I don't see any links on Lee's site pointing to these minutes yet, but it looks like something may be underway there. Latest minutes posted here are from the Feb 22 meeting.

Looks to be across the street from the outlets, so walkable. Sometimes the locations aren't ideal; Tesla is somewhat subject to the whims of the landowners during negotiations.
West Springfield is wedged in behind the Stop and Shop and Panera, in an area where you'd only expect to see tractor trailers at loading docks. West Lebanon is in the corner of the Price Chopper lot, about as far south on the Route 12A shopping strip as you can get. The highest end shopping is at the other end of the strip, a mile north (Powerhouse Mall). The town dump is closer (as your nose will tell you when the wind is just right).
I think that somebody had a word and they changed it.
Try google: supercharger harrisburg pa union square and it comes up as Google's descriptive text in a LinkedIn page.
Google: supercharger harrisburg lee plattsburgh and the text shows all three.

Mr Musk has mentioned demand in the Northeastern USA a few times. Maybe this is a push.
I-91 is now well covered, with a now-obvious hole around St Johnsbury (or Littleton/Franconia)

What's nicer, is that it gives you the option to bypass Montreal completely if you're headed to/from Ontario, and go from Magog to Cornwall.
Agree that St. J would be very nice-to-have, particularly for east-west travel across the top of New England.
Agree, great location but the options to eat are extremely limited near the highway.
So here it is, more than one third of the way through 2016, and I have seen absolutely zero posts with information on permits, hearings, etc., on any new MA/VT/NH/ME S/C sites, regardless of which one or where they are. I am particularly interested in the ones that have been on the map for Maine for 2 years or more, with no (apparent) progress.
Or did I miss something? Anyone hear or see any action on those 2 sites in Maine?

Has anyone heard about a destination charger at the Mt. Washington Auto Road? There is a building and parking lot across from the entrance, the Great Glen Trails Outdoor Center, that would be perfect. It's a long drive up to Gorham and then back, would require charging, at least a quick charge.
