Supercharger - Big Pine Key, FL

[MarcoRP]

Permits have recently been filed for a new Supercharger in Big Pine Key. 8 stalls are coming soon to the Winn-Dixie located at 251 Key Deer Blvd.

*Some of the permit details were modified for accuracy reasons

A v3 much closer to key west would be really nice to have. There aren't great charging options on key west in general.

Maybe a sign that Winn Dixie in the Keys is working with Tesla so maybe the Winn Dixie in Key West could be in process. Would be nice to have a SC at the end.

They do seem to have some kind of deal with Winn Dixie... Brooksville FL and Arcadia FL are both Winn Dixie locations as well, and I've charged at one other location near Tampa that was at a Winn Dixie.

I do like grocery store locations in general since they are almost never ice'd, usually have nice restrooms, and the walk to the store and back make charging seem shorter. Only downside is that they are usually not open 24x7.

Tried the Winn Dixie in Key West this past weekend. Kinda meh, but also in the same strip mall is Jersey Mikes, a New York style Deli with real New York Bagels. Not to mention all kinds of other place that are open all kinds of hours a short stroll. Much better then Marathon location.

I'm very happy to hear about more chargers in Monroe County. The Marathon one is fine, but being the only supercharger in the area (and a 4 stall one at that) it could easily find itself to be a choke point for Teslas traveling between Miami and Key West. This should really help alleviate that pressure.

This is fantastic news, as we have have a house in the lower keys. Hope they open it by summer.

Swung by there on our way back from Key West. No visible work that we could see, not even any utility marker flags.
BTW , Marathon was busy both Southbound ( Tuesday, afternoon) and Northbound( Friday, morning)

The Florida Keys can surely use this and more SC sites. I can't imagine the stress I would have if I drove to Key West and found I didn't have enough charge to make it to the one SC that exists today in the Keys.

The airport at Key West would be another welcomed site for a SC.

Needs to happen SOON...4 using a Marathon and a line 4 deep waiting....1A and 1B were really slow as well

Building permit issued yesterday. Construction should start any day, if not already.

As soon as we get verification (pictures preferred), we can mark this as under construction on supercharge.info. If you're passing through the area, please take a moment to check it out and report back.

According to this Facebook post (it’s not my post) not only is this site already under construction, but should be online soon.


I am headed to the keys this weekend and I can drop by to verify. At very least it can be marked as under construction.

why do the lines look like they’re floating and have shadows?

It’s where previous parking lines were.

I like the fact that they raised the cabinet - I'm guessing as a precaution for any future storm surge.

Obviously one of Elon's new harebrained schemes.

Drove by yesterday and all units were lit up!

Didn’t try charging because we didn’t need it looked operational!

Should’ve briefly plugged in anyway.
