New service center in Chicago.

[gmo43]

Here are some pictures of what looks like new service center for Tesla. It's on Elston and Nelson. Rumors it's for Tesla froam neighbors and last I heard from guys I know from Tesla they stated they were getting a place on Elston. Maybe another supercharger location too???

I just heard the same thing. I'm at Western and Belmont, so this is awesome!

This would be awesome. Grand is a tight location. This seems like 6x the size

Lots of land behind the building too. Hard to know at this point how much of it is theirs.

I wish they would do something about the Western/Belmont intersection ASAP.

So much land. So little retail. Tesla retail store?

Didn't they just do a big something at that intersection?

Also, RIP Underbar.

They did redo the overpass and that whole 6 corner intersection but the land on 4 corners remain vacant and quite honestly an eye sore.

Ok, now I got it. I thought you were saying they should do something about the traffic. I'm sorry.

You are absolutely correct that the intersection is ugly as all get out.

Making progress....

I drove by tonight. A huge space indeed, with a big door on the side and several bays on the back. No visual indication yet that it's Tesla. It should be a nice place.

Great news indeed
I’m in the suburbs and was hoping they opened up a SC in Naperville where there are a ton of other dealerships. I suppose it would be a bit close to Westmont SC. Westmont SC claims to be one of the busiest due to lack of SC in surrounding states.

Awesome! I was driving on Honore and Elston last night and spotted a stockpile of model 3’s and what I think are some CPO classic model S cars - there had to be 100 plus cars in the parking lot. I wonder if these cars will be relocated to this new service center once it’s ready

How do you think this new location affects the present locations like the one in High Land Park? I would assume Highland Park still would do the majority of service from cars in Wisconsin and of course North Chicago area.

Zero progress over the past, I'd say, five month at this new location. I live down the street. Looks like a massive facility with tons of parking behind the space too. No Tesla logos anywhere that I can see, but the building looks ready for move-in.

Yeah, I drove by yesterday and noted the same thing. For the past few months, it looks like zero progress whatsoever. When I spoke to the guys at Grand Ave, they indicated a lot of the lifts and other equipment would be coming from their location. They indicated a June time-frame.

Any progress on this for those of you in the area?

Drove back earlier this week. Progress! Framing going up inside, overhead door was open and pallets of construction deliveries inside.
