Fence is down. Chargers are not yet operable.
I checked the supercharger Monday. Fence down, construction equipment still around. Chargers were not active and had the mesh wrap around the connectors as pictured in the last update post.
I'm in DC now, but if another update post doesn't go up I'll swing by when I am back home (after hurricane).

Swung by this afternoon. Everything looks done, but the chargers are not active and the mesh wrap is still on the handles.

Just checked my car. It doesn't show on the Nav yet. I think that has been the first place it showed up in the past.

I've been using that app since December 2017 (pre-delivery, post decision to buy) and I've found it to be accurate. Got a heads up on Lewes and Claymont DE open dates. Also, in the comments and checkin text some drivers warn about out of service units after they report them. All in all very useful.

Saw comments on Facebook about car vandalism in Baltimore and some saying it wouldn’t be safe to charge there. This looks like a fairly nice and reasonably safe location to me, but I’m not that familiar with th area. (I have a daughter in Canton on the other side of the harbour.)
Any opinions about the SC location?

Should be okay I would think. It's near Silo Point and other nice areas. I have friends that live in SP. That area has some nice things around like Harris Teeter, World of Beer, some other stuff. I'd feel safe parking in that garage. I've parked in it before once or twice.

They are dedicated (no sharing) 72 kW "urban" superchargers.
SC location is fine. The vandalism is not "vandalism". It's break ins when idiots leave laptops, cell phone, etc in plain view. I also live in Canton and car break-ins happen a lot overnight when folks are sleeping. I have not heard of a break in during the day in a shopping center lot. This SC is a very safe location. There are slow level 1 chargers here I have used.
When you live in an area where there are daily postings on social media about laptops, cell phones, work tools, etc being stolen because they are left in a vehicle in plain sight, then yes, I blame the victim of property theft for not securing their valuables. This happens literally every day in Canton. If you are aware of a certain type of crime that is easily prevented, then you have to take responsibility for your (in)action. None of these people would think of not locking their house at night, yet they seem to think cars are inviolate.
