It's only been 2 months since Tesla had their site design/planning approval hearing. That is generally not long enough for them to get a building permit approved and issued. So, it's unlikely for them to start just yet. My baseline assumption is ~4 months from planning approval to building permit approval. How long after that they wait before starting construction is a real toss up. Hopefully they'll break ground by the end of the year.

Supercharger - Greenfield, CA (LIVE 15 Dec 2020, 12 V3 stalls)

Yes, the construction looks exactly like the plans posted on the first page of this thread.
Pull throughs look like they were outside the design envelope. Might be able to do it on the ends, though.

Will someone who is nearby do a drive-by and post a status update? I will need to use this Supercharger (if it is working) on a road trip next week.
That design will be helpful for those towing trailers; when this location isn’t busy they can charge without unhitching, like at the Petaluma Supercharger.
Long distance travel on 101 between SF and LA is getting ridiculously easy as there are so many more Superchargers on that route compared to just a few years ago.
Probably won’t be through there in the next few days, but with the new V3 SCs open in Gilroy and Paso, you should be fine in between, and Salinas is always there if you need it, although it’s a long ways (comparatively) off the freeway.
Threw me at first since it's 0.8 miles. But the traffic lights make it seem longer. Paso Robles shows 1.8 miles. Gilroy is 0.3 (old) and 0.7 miles (new).
Salinas is deceiving. The satnav is pretty good about getting you off pretty easily when coming from or back out to the north, but often wants to take me through town coming from or heading back to the south.
All stalls are forward pull-in, but have tire stops. So no drive-through stall(s) available for towing vehicles. There were two guys working on the internals of each charger.
They had no idea when they would open the site and had no interest in communicating.

Fairly certain the date is a typo because other posts seem to indicate it wasn’t this far along at the beginning of October but just wanted to confirm what the actual date was of these photos??
Uhhh.... yeah. My post above was a visit on Oct 1st and there was nothing. Plus Oct 3 was a Saturday.

Could probably throw a ball from the freeway to the chargers (although Oxnard may actually be closer remembering one pedestal got wiped out by a car from the freeway). But Greenfield definitely is in contention since distance 'driving' from freeway to charger is pretty darn short.
