Just drove through that shopping center yesterday on my way home from work. Doesn't look like anything has been done in the last 3-4 months. Kinda disappointed in the progress.

Good. I'm surprised they were installed without them. That left turn into the "pull forward' charging spots can be challenging for S/X.

Drove by this morning to check out what a circle with a line through it meant on my nav. I didn't try to charge or anyting. But the ADA SC that was damaged weeks ago appears to be fixed. There were no cars there - really charging or otherwise. There is indeed 6 more stalls in place (covered with garbage bags). When I left work earlier this afternoon the SC still had the circle with a line through it on the nav. I think they just needed to shut down the power to place the 6 new stalls. I've never seen this location completely full before but I definitely welcome the additional capacity to the area.
As other said earlier, zero reason to not just put these 6 in there in the first place. . .
I had called Tesla to inquire about it and they proposed it was a V3 upgrade. I knew that was nuts and then confirmed that it was just the additional 6 urban chargers being added.

Strange. Didn't stop in to look as I was passing by this morning, but the nav screen showed "20 of 26 stalls available" when I tapped on the icon.

Nice
It's was never full when there were 20. I think the Carlsbad one is a pretty good location. I live 5 mins away from there and almost never use it.
I've used this location 10 or 12 times and have had to wait (not long) twice. Could be they're anticipating increased usage based on sales. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Strange the Tesla website and supercharge.info still show 20 stalls.

They just installed steel poles in front of the chargers immediately on the left side when you enter the top parking lot. The very sharp angle turn required makes it very dangerous to turn left into the parking spot. (Tesla transferred the risk from the damage to the charger to damage to your car)... Best way to park in these is to proceed all the way forward, make a U turn and then turn right into the spot.

I swung by today to top off since FUSC and check out the additional 6 stalls. Met a nice couple who drove up and asked about the car. They are looking to buy a Model 3 but wanted to see one in person first.
If they happen to be reading this thread, I hope our chat was helpful! Good luck with your future red Model 3!

There's some bad Tesla owners who have been littering here.
I have picked up several empty bottles and other trash.
There's now a trash can at this SC - please use it.
It's located on your left as you drive up the hill to the SC area.
