Tesla updated the supercharger map today and this location has unfortunately been delayed until Q3 so hopefully it'll be open by the end of the summer.

Good news, still hoping for more locations in South Brooklyn though
Drove by on Friday, the all the charging pedestals and conduit work on the chargers themselves has been completed. Tesla switchgear has been delivered on the elevated platform but is still wrapped up.

Update is 12 superchargers, 4 universal (EVgo branding). I tried plugging in and it seems like they just need to connect the power to the charging stations. I’m tired of going to bk museum (and getting charged an arm and a leg for parking) or
The address is the Starbucks address.

Right. You would think it’s literally just “turning the power on” but who knows how many electrical permits need to be approved by DOB for that to happen in NYC aka the red tape capital
I agree, also think this location isn't enough to power all of NY evs, suggested a few the other day, hopefully it will make it to the next round of vote and if it does, please vote.
But I've submitted the following locations:
Marine Park Parking Lot, Brooklyn, NY 11229
6000 Shore Pkwy, Brooklyn, NY 11234
579 Gateway Dr, Brooklyn, NY 11239
Not sure if any of these locations work for you, but seems fairly convenient in the belt parkway or along the belt parkway, also public parks seems to be a good place to put charging stations for the public, but you can suggests locations by signing into your Tesla account, click charging --> supercharger voting --> suggest a new location, and if it gets to the next voting cycling, please vote, we need more superchargers in the area, NY is literally a EV Charging desert.
Side note to discussions here, not only is NYC a EV desert, red tape capital, but I don't see them slacking in raising the fares for the MTA or implementing the infrastructure needed for congestion pricing by April 2024, yet it takes them forever to fix the MTA, the BQE. Literally a cash grab, it's easy for them to take money, but impossible for them to do stuff. And part of the argument for congestion pricing is to reduce pollution, but I don't see them giving a green pass for those that drives EV aka all of us here. Don't mind taking the subway either as long as it works and reliable, but like everything in the city, NOTHING WORKS, ONLY WANTS MONEY. Really need something done with this dysfunctional government filled with nothing but bureaucracy.
Totally agree with you. I use the subway to go to work in the city. But drive everywhere else. I'm totally against this new congestion pricing that's starting next year. It's totally a cash grab.
Literally so annoyed about this, even California is not as bad, their toll is $8.50, here it starts at $15 excluding congestion pricing just to go to the stateside, literally need a reason to go to Jersey or you're just wasting $15. Doesn't feel free, I have to pay $15 just to go 10 mile, so feel trapped in the city or Long Island. Tolls are more expensive than gas lol and for what? BQE never gets fixed. Long Island Sound Bridge to Connecticut never gets built for those interested living in Long Island but not having to go through the traffic congested every time to the mainland. Idk why we are accepting these from the clown government.
This is EXACTLY why I'm so happy I moved out to nj. Still very close to nyc if need be but quality of life is great. Yes taxes suck but my life is so much better.
NYC has become VERY anti driver. Trying to be like Europe. What they don't get is that Americans love their cars. Period.
I've been waiting for nyc to get superchargers for years. Had tesla for about 6 years total. They FINALLY upgraded the jfk charger but on a recent trip it was packed with tlcs.
and I totally agree, the whole thing with New York City, and New York State, being for green energy, shutting down coal plants in the state and yada yada yada, they absolutely virtue signal, and do not put their money where your mouth is. They have more than enough public real estate to build a whole slew of chargers throughout New York City and New York State.

Less than half of households in New York City own a car. Must have a very high proportion of foreigners.
