Superchare.info sources its data via emails from Tesla enthusiasts that find evidence that Tesla is seeking a permit or has begun construction on a site. It is not affiliated with Tesla Motors Corp. Have they been wrong, well there are situations were the permit was sought but not obtained and site was presumably abandoned. Doesn't mean it was wrong. Just look at Rivière du Loup, QC permit. It's been in this status for almost 1 year.

The "Permit" blue dot more broadly means that Tesla is working on a supercharger at a specific site but it's not under construction yet. It could be in the design phase or permitting process. Rarely the process goes awry before a site gets built (like the first attempt in Allentown PA) and a blue dot will subsequently disappear. The Plattsburgh location got a blue dot because the other two sites mentioned at the LinkedIn page turned out to be accurate.
There are blue dots that haven't turned into Superchargers.
Note that although the status is called Permit, it's really anything from location identified, through the approval and permitting stage, to just before construction has begun.
(I was the person who found and posted the LinkedIn information.)
They look like distribution centers. It kind of looks like there might be a couple pedestal frames behind them and to the right. It looks like there is a transformer in back between the mini-excavator and the porta-potties. Hopefully someone from TMC will pass through soon and post an obsessive amount of pictures.
I checked the service maps and NYSEG is responsible for this area. I would have preferred National Grid, because they powered on the Albany and Utica (and maybe Syracuse too) sites fairly quickly, whereas NYSEG covers the Buffalo area where the Supercharger site took months to be connected to the network

This is indeed good news. I'm going to NY from Montreal on May 20th in my 70D and really hope this is completed by then. It would really make it easier.
I can confirm that construction has started in the NE corner. Work was going on this morning when we were there: 8 stalls split into two groups of 4 each. Will try to post some pics later when we get home if we can figure out how to.
Located in the NE corner. From the street you will have to go around Target to the back of it.

If there is timely delivery of the transformer you could be up in 2 weeks. I would be surprised if that were the case. Or, maybe Plattsburgh utilities are better coordinated than NYSEG was in Buffalo.
