Supercharger - Newburgh, NY

[ptsagcy]

By the way, the food at Cosimo's is excellent. Been there and their other locations many times (although not recently).

Fantastic. Network just keeps getting better and better.

Thanks for the information David.

Looking at this location on google street views:
There is a utility pole on the Orr Ave side of the building. Is this considered the main entrance where the superchargers would be located? Google Maps
In another view, from across the Rt 300, it appears there is also an existing utility pole in place at the edge of the parking lot. : Google Maps

In the Orr Avenue picture, the Supercharger slots will be the last two spaces at the right end of the row of cars, plus four more adjacent around the corner.

The Union Ave shot shows the corner (by the bush and short stone wall) where the Superchargers will be: four facing Union Ave and two facing Orr Ave.

Wow, could use this station today - I'm in the area. I guess it will be in operation next time I come here...

I agree, the food there is great, plus you are right across the street from a Home Depot. In addition it is easy walking distance to a Walmart, Pet smart and a Lowes if you need to pick someting up or kill 20 minutes.

Seems like a good location but I have not been able to corroborate it by any other source. Has anyone been able to verify the truth of a supercharger at Cosimo's?

Confirmed!

- - - Updated - - -

Only work on the supercharger and transformer area appears to have started. There was no trenching for stalls yet. It appears the work happened quite recently as the mortar still appears moist.

It appears they may be staking out a conduit over to the metal pole on the corner of the Hess property across Orr Ave (the dead end side street).

Excited!!

Awesome. Thanks for the pix!

Spoke to the Manager today. She said Tesla told her that charging would only take 15 minutes per car! I've eaten there a few times. This lot is always full! Here are a few pictures from today's lot capacity.

 

[Deke]

BTW, I forgot to add. She said people are already complaining about them placing these charger slots. I suspect there will be a lot of ICEing issues. I asked her to relay that signage will be key. She immediately saw the potential issues that would cause and said she would make that a priority.

This is possibly the most effective defense for SpC spaces:

These barrels are weighted down with semi tire cutouts. The tow away signs point to lot-owner enforcement rather than some distant corporation. Suggest that the restaurant get a couple of these bad boys, if you could.

Newburgh is going to be a major crossroads SpC. :smile:

While I understand that sometimes it's cost effective to place the superchargers near the building, I'd prefer they set these chargers further away to avoid ICEing. It also forces us to go for a little walk while killing time.

15 minutes sounds low, I wonder how Tesla came up with that #, and hope there are no 'demand charges' surprises.

I was just at the site today. The stalls are up but not functioning yet. The manager at Cosimos restaurant where the supercharger a are in the parking lot said sometime next week. Took a few pics(notice two spots being ICED even before the juice is turned on)
