That article is 5 months old. Not sure if there's been any progress since then. I tried doing some quick searches on more recent news but didn't find anything.

Tesla really need to get Lawrenceville site up and running. there are so many Teslas around here.. Both Springfield and Cherry Hill are far.

Looks like Tesla resume work at Lawrenceville site. I show the HVAC contractor van & POD container in the parking lot today. They might have started interior work.

Tesla Service Center - Lawrenceville-NJ_06262019

Just heard from a local body shop that they were hoping to open “3rd quarter” (so much for projections about this summer), but township licensing is holding them up (apparently the shop took 10 years to get theirs for some recent work they did).

Googled it today and it looks like they just added “Opens July” to the listing

That's good news.

I think that is Google's notation, not an official one from Tesla. We've seen the same thing for some superchargers that are in construction. Invariably so far, the date has been meaningless. So, if it opens in July, that will be nice. But if not, don't be too surprised.

So, it's August. I'm going to assume that no one has received word on when this location is opening, huh?

Not me, but I too am eager to hear if anyone else has any relevant info.

Look at the NJ restrictions on Tesla. They have a limit on the number of 'stores'. I don't know how that applies to service centers, and even less so for delivery centers. Any word on changes to the NJ restrictions? (I suspect they are related).

And, to add insult to injury:

Tesla is building its biggest N.J. facility. If it is allowed to open remains to be seen - ROI-NJ

Thank you for the article, I wish them luck in getting the cap removed.

 

[jdccar]

That was written in February. Anyone know if there has been any progress toward changing the cap?

This is why I left New Jersey... Things are pretty convoluted. This whole thing just reeks...

Looks like interior work is going at full speed at Lawrenceville site. There are many construction workers working on the iterior earlier this week.

My hope is that they can initially open this up as “just service, no sales” to support the growing vehicle fleet, then if NJ gets its act together, bolt on a small sales side in the waiting area. Unless the NJ laws prevent service too?

Looks like they will open as Service Center soon.
