Here's that Marco article about it, with the brief mention of the new Nashvile site about halfway down.

 
Construction has started! Location is in front of the Regal and behind the Panera

No change. Everything neatly stored behind fences and project appears to be on hold. Hard to manage construction projects when you fire all the project managers. SMH
Lots of sites are moving forward around the country. Once all the permits are approved and issued, there really isn’t much for Tesla to do other than pay the contractors as work progresses. If these contractors walked instead of waiting for Tesla to figure things out then this will be stalled until a new contractor is brought in to finish. Seems like all the hard work is done so should be easy to finish.

Maybe, but I bet a lot LESS than before. Prior to the Supercharger team massacre, they were going at warp speed. Nashville went from nothing happening to multiple upgrades and multiple new sites being started simultaneously with additional new sites getting permits issued. Now, it’s ground to a complete stop.

It’s possible some of our sites are waiting on the power company - which can take weeks or months - but usually the site construction is finished. That wouldn’t explain why Powell was stopped mid-install.
 
I drove past today and about half of the dispensers have been installed. It's not clear where the transformers are or will be installed--several large conduits are trenched towards a nearby utility pole.
Wherever those conduits end is where the transformer will be. Owed will come down the pole then underground to the transformer. The transformer output will go underground to the switchgear cabinet then to the 6 supercharger cabinets then to the charge posts.
