    Any news on this supercharger? Sure would be nice to be able to charge up along the Taconic Parkway.

    I visited the site yesterday - making some progress

    Also immediately off the highway - easy access

    I just stopped by the area yesterday - a week later than pics above
    Entrance/Exit was very small to support the traffic that used the Stewart's store and gas pumps
    Most of new construction work since last week was spent creating a larger entry/exit to the facility
    which would give more direct access to the back area where the actual Super Chargers are located

    I admit it going to be nitpicking here but looks like it is not off a highway but off the Parkway or the Taconic, which is a great drive and should be fun in an S X 3 or Roadster2 (dreaming) !

    Yes - it is a Parkway -
    The best driving is between where Route 6 intersects theTaconic and Interstate 84.
    Driving is great in both directions - although going south from 84 is particularly fun because of the long up-hill grade after the thumb curve by Tomkins Corner.

    I used to do the Taconic from NYC to Ancram which is about 90 miles in my Yukon XL. Now it is so much more fun in the Tesla Model S. Drive it at least twice a month both ways. Can be hairy in icy weather and appears to have been a practical joke at some points by Franklin Roosevelt ( started as a scenic route thru Hudson Valley) Man, the Tesla hits mountains like they're not even there. Yukon shifted up/down constantly. But I digress, real nice having a supercharger on the route :)

    Happy Holidays to all

    I went by Thursday afternoon - transformers in place.
    Looks like they are ready to install charging stations

    In your back of your picture, left to right:

    4 Supercharger cabinets
    Distribution cabinet
    Empty transformer slab with meter cabinet on posts.

    In the front:
    Posts for signs, pedestal mounts and cables (Superchargers to stalls).

    Still to be done:
    - Install and connect the pedestals
    - Install the charging cords
    - Utility install the transformer, meter
    - Final inspections
    - Commissioning

    Looks like they had a productive Friday. These are pictures from today Saturday December 23rd. For those who don't know in the 1st picture the background is the Taconic State Parkway. It's literally RIGHT off the parkway :)
