Ah yes, I passed by yesterday and there was no update. Still waiting for the pedestals.
Ironically I was at the Burlington charger on my way back from being a typical Canadian shopping in America, and I arrived with 1/8 Stalls full and 1 stall broken, and 15 minutes later all the stalls were full, and 2 cars were waiting! They really need to hurry up with this charging location because the next stop is Surrey, BC or Tswaassen Mills.

So this site started the middle of May and now 3 months later it is still not operational. God what a joke... Cle Elum, WA was open to public in just 23 days... Tesla Supercharger Management needs to get their s@#$%^&t together... Just saying...

Hey, guys, I swung by again today. Looks like they are getting ready to put the stalls together.
Didn't see these bags or the red signs on Friday.

Looks like they are just completing work as they can and have pulled the wire through to each post location. Generally the post are always set prior to wires being pulled so a very limited amount of wire becomes waste. Hopefully no one steals the wiring before they install the posts.
I don't see any crates on-site that would clue us in that the posts have been delivered. Keep looking and if you spot 7 identical crates those will be the 14 posts as they are crated up in pairs.
Good hunting!
Charge On!

Yeah, will do! Also, I noticed that on Monday night that they had blue crane machine on-site there. Maybe for the soon to come crates?
ETA of crates give or take 6 months to 6 years

Yes, good point! This is good sign that a delivery is imminent and given that everything else appears to be in place I believe you're on point!
If available out of one of Tesla's warehouses in Fremont, CA freight delivered takes between 7-10 days. Of course "available" is the key here...

Nice. Looks like 12 or 14 stalls with two pull in spots for people with trailers or bike racks.

I hate it when there's 30 minutes general parking or other caveats to the charging stalls. It pisses off all the EV owners and it breeds bad habits for the ICE Drivers. Leavenworth and the employee parking is a prime example of chargers being ICE'd.
Leavenworth has zero ICEd chargers when I was there during peak season a couple of months ago. In my travels, I’ve never had to wait for a charger due to an ICE being parked in one of the 15/30 minute general parking spots.
As EV adoption grows and charging station demand increases, I think you’ll see some of these general parking signs start to disappear.
Stopped in at Blaine site earlier this week and situation was the still the same as pictures posted earlier in this thread: black bags over wires and no pedestals installed.
Nice site in mall that isn't too busy and right beside a Woods Coffee shop.

Looks like the fence got removed and the lines for the superchargers got painted over more clearly.
I found a bag off a charger and decided to go take a look. Still no real progress
