Supercharger - Brentwood / Nashville, TN (Old Hickory Blvd)

[MarcoRP]

I may also do the same: it’s only a 4000km round trip for me!

I took that picnic and drove to the coordinates. There is nothing going on. Nothing, no machinery, no dirt, no permit to build - nothing.

Any new info on this? This is really close to my work so I look forward to it actually being true.

We really need this alternate site. Although it may not have helped this evening - Thompson Lane was down due to the storm knocking out power to several parts of Nashville - the Old Hickory area may have been affected as well.

Construction has begun at Target in Brentwood TN on Old Hickory Blvd. Three cabinets present so 12 stations confirmed for the V3 location.

Sweet! Thanks for the update JP. This will be a welcome addition to the I-65 corridor.

It’s weird to me that the southside is getting another one. I would imagine that it would we better served in West Nashville/The Nations.

West Nashville is almost to Dickson on I-40. The I-65 coming from the north has Bowling Green (although traffic makes that stop quite inconvenient especially during rush hours). I-24 has Thompson. The Supercharger at the Service Center will be delisted once OHB is online so it makes perfect sense to me. I would like to see one in Lebanon and an urban charger downtown near Broadway.

They have located them in the best spot IMHO, all the way to the one side of Target just past the CVS at the corner of the building as far away from the bedlam of that shopping area as possible. There's a Longhorn restaurant really close by but no other businesses (other than Target). Shouldn't get ICE'd much, I got parked close by in a very empty parking aisle.

Thanks for update

I guess but my point is more a city center (I consider the nations close enough) supercharger.

A little progress. Agree that this is the best spot in the lot to avoid ICEing.

Progress on the trenching. Credit to Tesla Owners Tennessee who’s been providing ample updates on this location

Wife grabbed a quick pic this evening. Moving along steadily.

Not much more activity today. Pano first your pleasure.

Any updates from the last ~3 weeks?

Any updates from the last ~3 weeks?

A few posts to the Tesla TN Facebook page showed concrete poured, but not much else. More work to go. I suspect at least another month or so.

 

[Zcar]

More money spent at Target, but nice progress!

From the latest pics, it looks like this will also include 2-4x Level 2 connectors (are those ChargePoint units?)
