    Well this is a surprise! Maybe there will be a Service Center in the not too distant future.

    This is going to be a much more convenient location for those traveling to Canada from the south/west. Personally, I’m just happy not to have to walk all the way across the frozen wasteland to Barnes and Noble to pee at the Depew charger.

    Nice! Right near Walden Galleria, but far enough to not be iced.

    This is perfect.. i often drive from Toronto to Buffalo to shop/pick up packges I dont want to pay canadian shipping for and the current Buffalo one is a bit out of the way.. this along with the Niagara falls addition really makes things much more convenient for ppl doing the Toronto to Niagara area trek.. What a nice surprise and to see it almost done!

    Along Primary Interstates: I-90
    Along US Numbered Highways (<=5mi): US-20, US-62
    Along Auxiliary Interstates: None

    I-90

    From: Erie, PA - 95.4 miles
    To: Buffalo, NY - 8.3 miles
    Diversion: 0.7 miles
    From: Sheffield, OH - 215.5 miles
    To: Victor, NY - 74.5 miles

    Another Buffalo-area Supercharger, closer to I-90 and to Buffalo, NY than the current Buffalo, NY Supercharger.
    Also, a little bit closer to Erie, PA, being less than 100 miles.

    I visited the site on Saturday. The installation seems complete. The transformer and meter have been installed. The display on the meter is live indicating that there is power to the transformer but the display shows 00000. Looks like it is waiting for the installer to turn it on and Tesla to do acceptance testing. Meter01.jpg Transformer01.jpg
