Supercharger - Lowell, MA

[bprender25]

as others have said, extra cabinet is gone but that's about all that's changed. I included a pic from today, at least they plowed it

Thanks for sharing. Wish we had a webcam with that view to keep our eyes out for the utility coming in to drop a new pole. Somewhere... anywhere!

Looks like it won’t be long. It’s a dream location for me - my MS’12 was slow-charged at Chilies/Showcase Cinema too many times. It’s a fantastic location for all passing through on 495, Rte 3 - MY’23 will be happy to charge here. Looks close. Would love to be there to flip the switch.

In case anyone is waiting with bated breath, I also drive by every week. No progress. Starting to worry they are waiting until spring (and my free super charging runs out)

I've been checking too typically every day. In my situation unlike most other Tesla owners I've never used a supercharger in 7 years of ownership. Drive 12k miles a year but never more than 200 miles in a day.

I went by the other night picking up some food at the nines.
Lots of snow piled up where they were trenching/had the ground opened up.
Otherwise a very nice job of cleaning out all the spots, and the pad for the transformer is exposed.
But like others have said - zero change.

Still waiting but pad is ready.

Looks so lonely. Built but abandoned.

Paid Lowes a visit..
Still no transformer. No change to the lines (just in case the Lawrence striping crew might’ve done a nearby site..)

I go by here once or twice a day and recently saw a crew in the lot and temporarily got excited until I realized it was a landscaping company.

Update from today. I'm guessing that pad is where the transformer hardware is going (someone else might know better). I don't see any green boxes yet there today.

Yes, no change for a long time. For fun I emailed National Grid about the delay and naturally they had no new information.

What we’re waiting for is a new pole all the way to the right (out of frame) near where the dumpsters are out back. The primary conduit was run all the way back there to connect to the missing pole.

Looks like National Grid might be working on getting utilities or they're just conveniently right where you guys said they'd be.

This has got to be one of the longest construction periods for any Telsa Supercharger. Construction started in June 2023 and looks like it was basically almost complete in July. Here we are basically in May 2024 and its still not turned on. Anyone know what the hold up?

317 days. It's up there but not the worst.
