Supercharger - LaGrange, NY

[Tdreamer]

Tesla is constructing a 12-stall supercharger in LaGrange at the Tops Supermarket with an address of 16 Jon J Wagner Wy, Lagrangeville, NY 12540. This is the site of an existing EVolve, NY charging station. Site find credit to MarcoRP. The project was approved by the planning board in March 2023. This site may already be under construction.

Can anyone near this location pay it a visit and perhaps share some photos of findings? If under construction, does the site have MagicDock v3 charging posts by chance?

They been installed since the end of the summer 2023. They are just not online yet

Any chance someone in the area could share some photos, especially the charging posts themselves to see if they have the MagicDock included?

Visited today, looks complete except transformer. Transformer pad has remnants of sealing foam so if I had to guess transformer may have failed during installation. Note meter has been installed usually the last step. Utility is Central Hudson G & E. Nice location close to Taconic Parkway with dinner and supermarket within walking distance, pretty scene next to pond with turtles (see sign) . Hopefully transformer will be installed in a reasonable time.

Thanks so much for the update & photos. MagicDock confirmed.

I'll add that the charging posts are numbered already, which usually means Tesla has come by and done at least partial commissioning. The empty pad looks like it may have had equipment mounted on it, but subsequently removed. ???

Forgot to say, yes all stalls equipped with magic dock CCS adapter see picture above.

I was there a few days before Christmas to see if they were active (been installed for months). I saw a couple of contractors working on them and decided to ask them if they knew the ETA for the stations to be activated. The one guy who was working on it stated that they had a blown transformer and they were fixing it that day and then Tesla would have to deploy them. Stated that hopefully by Christmas they would be activated. A month later and they're still not active yet

...and the lesson here is that the guys working on the site never have ANY idea about when it will go live. Take what they say with a dump truck of salt.

I was there on Friday, January 26 and this location is still not online. I drive a Ford F150 Lightning and these do have the Magic Dock adapter built in and it appears I'd be able to charge at the stations on either end without blocking other Tesla vehicles. I live 15 minutes from here and it would be nice to have reliable DC fast charging in the event I can't charge at home on my Level 2 (e.g., power outage). The NYEvolve chargers at this same location are unreliable. Only 2 out of 4 are reported working. Once Tesla opens up their network to Ford and I buy an adapter, the Clinton Corners, NY location is 4.7 miles away from me. I have charged at two other Magic Dock locations, one in March in Red Hook, NY just to try it out and the other is Saratoga on a road trip). I had to park at an angle to charge, but knowing that I would have move if other vehicles could not charge.

It’s like you won’t have to buy that adapter.

Ford will provide free adapters to access Tesla's Supercharger network

Ford announced that it will provide free adapters for Mustang Mach-E and F-150 Lightning owners to access Tesla’s Supercharger network....
