redneck drivin' a tesla...
honestly though, has anybody discovered where the polaris location is going to be built?

Weee!
I've been keeping an eye open for permits, but so far it doesn't look like they've pulled them yet.
There's also a "Columbus" location coming this year too, but no idea where...
I'm pulling for the Ohio Statehouse garage. They already have a bunch of J1772, would be a perfect place for some urban superchargers.

There are several AEP trucks working near the superchargers today (8/6). No transformer yet, though.

My guess is one of the public garages downtown; closest to 'things and stuff and whatnots'.
Tesla wants to put it in the new convention center garage but the county hasn't voted on it yet. https://www.bizjournals.com/columbu...n-the-works-to-help-tesla-bring-charging.html
Permits are pulled under weird "shell" corporations in some areas. That is at least for things like service centers. Look up the registered name for Cleveland and Cincinnati service locations.I've been keeping an eye open for permits, but so far it doesn't look like they've pulled them yet.

well one of the people at the easton store said that the new store/service center that's going into the old hh gregg building in easton was going to have superchargers!

Weee!
Great share! I like this... other than the part where they said they won't even be voting on it for 8 months!!

Yea, the Columbus SC was kind of the odd man out in this regard. Most SCs have superchargers. The thing to keep in mind here is that they usually only install 2. They're located inside the service bays. Their priority is for vehicles being serviced, loaners, and inventory. They'll let you use them during business hours if they don't need them, or if you're in a bind.
The exception would be if this location is designated as the 3rd planned spot for a full supercharging site in Columbus. Which would then earmark the possible downtown location for next years plans.

It all varies. I've religiously watched several chargers go up over the years and the delays stem from 1 of 3 places:
1. Initial permitting and agreement (we don't generally see this since we don't know the site is permitted until it has a permit)
2. Contractor weather delays (contractors like to get paid so delays on their part are almost always because they can't work, not because they don't want to)
3. Utility hookup (if you an believe it, utilities are busy and there really is no incentive to prioritize things of this nature)
The delays are never because project cost over-run, lack of Tesla people getting plans submitted, getting Tesla people out to test/finalize, delay of parts shipments, etc.

Just returned from my month long cross country trip in my MX and did my walk up to the Dublin Supercharger this evening. Status:
1. Main green transformer is set on cement pad.
2. The electric meter is not installed yet.
