Nice fine and Next time, follow the thread title best practices if possible

considering how finished it is when someone found it, makes you wonder how many other hidden under construction superchargers might be around

It almost seems that Tesla has stopped adding future sites to their online map. In Western Canada several have popped up in recent months while under construction (Kindersley SK, Whitecourt AB, Russell MB and Neepawa MB). There are others at the permitting stage (that are also not on the Tesla map). And this time of year is normally going to be slower time for actual construction. The Supercharger Voting map might give some clues to locations that are on Tesla's radar.

Supercharger update at Sunrise Center Kitchener, take a look at the picture with the two parking spaces off the side of the superchargers, does this look like a couple of L2 spots are being placed there?

 

[HAL8950]

Yes, its looking like a couple of L2 chargers going in beside the new Superchargers. Also a nice addition of trash and recycling bins!

 

[Suspect]

Wow this one is quick. Didn’t expect a Supercharger to suddenly appear at Sunrise.

Sunrise Centre Supercharger in Kitchener update from Jan 28th 2024. Looks like some of the white power boxes have been affixed in place.

OK, this seems a bit strange, look at the stands with bags on top between the superchargers in picture 1, then look at the stands with bags (L2 chargers) in picture 2. Do the stands look the same? Could they be installing L2's between each Supercharger as well? If so I don't believe I have seen this any where else in North America.

Looks like the Level 2 chargers are accessible from one parking row while the row on the other side of the divider is for Supercharging.

Yes it does look that way, have you ever seen another Supercharger setup like this? I cannot recall one.

I haven't seen a setup like this before.

As in the installation of free L2 chargers next to Superchargers? Shops at Don Mills in Toronto has 16 Superchargers and 10 free L2 chargers.

An installation with alternating pedestals like what's shown above - Supercharger and Wall Connector, with Supercharger spots on one side of the aisle and L2 on the other. There are several examples of Superchargers with Wall Connectors serving nearby spots, but I'm not aware of any sites with them all installed on the same island like this.

This is a good design for the new NACS cars that have the charging port on the opposite side of the car.

Some of the L2's were being wired up today.
