This morning, while grabbing my morning coffee
The area had been coned-off and caution tape looped from cone to cone surrounding the entire area of the (12) stalls were the Superchargers would be installed. this is the latest activity I've encountered for the parking space
This is great news! Bring on ski season!

I'm fairly new to this site and supercharge.info, but if this has been "under construction" since 11/17 why no construction/permitted marker for it in supercharge.info?

Anyway great news for potentially taking some load off the Ellensburg SC.

This supercharger was under construction, then construction stopped, then they completely removed what had been installed and made it look like it did before. If they start building again in the same spot, it will be quite the facepalm but I'm sure it would be welcome nonetheless.

I didn’t find a new permit but....While perusing the WA permit site I did discover some permits for 240V stations at 1301 4th NW (across the street from FM) and at 1265 10th Ave NE. The original Tesla permit referenced by the OP say “Active” on one line and “cancelled” on another. Let’s watch and wait until real construction and SC crates show before getting too excited.

Doesn't FM typically place the SCs on an edge of their parking lots? This fenced off area looks to be in the middle and closer to the building than expected. Still keeping my fingers crossed.

I agree. I'm very skeptical until we see cabinets, bollards, or at least wooden crates with the Tesla logo on them.

Went to Fred Meyers today to take a closer look. Seems like things are exactly as they were in the photos earlier this week. No Tesla specific equipment on site. Just a storage container and some generic construction equipment. I took some pictures of some markings on the pavement most likely indicating where nearby utilities were, if anyone can make any more sense of it. 20180818_201605.jpg 20180818_201640.jpg 20180818_201707.jpg 20180818_201820.jpg 20180818_201844.jpg

Fantastic news, thank you!

Just given the size of the fenced off area, I suspect this one will have a lot of chargers.

How do we get the construction pin added to supercharge.info?

There were four boxes dropped off and a red pickup truck inside with a flat bed trailer (without anything on the trailer).

I was thinking 2 chargers (A & B) per box?
8 charging lanes: 1a, 1b | 2a, 2b | 3a, 3b & 4a, 4b?

Man if it’s only going to be 8 stalls this will turn into Ellensburg from the start (in addition to the likely ICEing) judging by Lynnwood almost always at capacity nowadays. Issaquah area has many more Teslas.....
