Nice find! Where exactly in the parking lot was the construction? I can't tell from looking at the pictures you uploaded.

It's next to Combine Kitchen in L shape. One side along Foothill blvd and the other side along the entrance to the area opposite from U Grill. In the last picture, Combine kitchen is on the left. Right is toward U Grill.

Looking for the Tesla permit. Does anyone know how to use this? After fooling for 30 mins, I can't even find the permits issued for my patio in Cucamonga.
7/15 lunch. Stopped into Combine for some coffee.
The excavator that was present last week is gone. Trenching on south side adjacent to Foothill is done. Not sure about the west side adjacent to U Grill.
South adjacent to Foothill
Looking south, west side on the right, across from U Grill. Cabinets and pedestals blocking view.
This will be a big boost to the plaza which was half full of not even less for years. things were on the uptick until pandemic hit. Have been a patron of Combine for years and they are likely now the longest lasting tennant.
The chargers are just behind the fence, behind that red Car (across from Ugrill).
The south side cabinets are adjacent to Combine's rear door by their bathroom.

Stopped by this morning around 9:00am and there is no progress. Looks like 8 stalls will be on the south side of parking lot but trenching is extended to west side.
Went by last night. Appears no progress from the previous posts of 7/20.
Sat 8/7 3am update. it was quite dark seems one of parking lights is now disconnected. Pics kind of suck.
Trenches are filled. Concrete pedestal bases are installed...it's clear now that they are going to be pull in stalls. I count 7 stalls along Foothill Blvd running east west. There is probably one stall hidden from view in the pic. Three doesn't appear to be any pull through stalls across either.
There are no stalls running north south adjacent to U Grill. The trench here was just to run conduit.
I'm thinking this is going to be an 8 stall like Temecula Parkway SuC. With 8 stalls Tesla is banking on Eastvale alleviating Rancho VG which really isn't happening. Rancho VG is still pretty much 100% full from late afternoon to 10 pm M to F and 12 noon to 12 midnight on weekends. This will help the VG but as more and more cars are still sold... I think it will be a matter of time before VG is full again or if the lease at VG is up.

Went by Mon Aug 9 for some coffee just after lunch.
Now clearly 8 stalls are seen. Pedestals going up. Cabinets are installed. It's getting very close.
Stall 1 by the back door of Combine Kitchen. Looks like a disabled back in stall. Cabinets are in.
Stalls 2 thru 8 pull in stalls.
I think the transformer pad is behind the white truck???
I'll try to go out there on Wed again.

Wed just before 9 am, stopped by for some coffee. All the pedestals are in. Cabinets were open and workers were wiring the cabinets to the pedestals. It's getting close.
Fencing across from U Grill has been removed. Clearly no chargers. The trenching was done to access the existing transformer hidden between the bushes and the wall across from U Grill. transformer is already existing so perhaps no new transformer needed? This could be very very close to completion.

Update Sat 8/14, 1am. L'Auberge Bakery and Market finally has their sign up on the building.
As for the SuC, progress appears to be about the same.
The real revelation is that the transformer pad is now revealed (bottom right of top pic) and a transformer is indeed needed. It is at the southwest corner of the lot blocked by trucks and equipment in the previous pictures. So looks like the main feed was taken existing transformer, run to the charging station transformer pad and then to the cabinets.
Empty transformer pad above.
I think my next visit will be Tuesday... Usually really need a coffee on Tuesdays.

Stopped by tonight. No change in status. Peeked into the Transformer pit. It's empty.
Plugged it in for kicks. Charge Station not powered was the message. So the car knows it's a Supercharger.

Went by today for a coffee today. Landscaping by the cabinets is complete, but may have already been, but I just didn't notice it the other night. Aside from that not much has changed. Transformer is still missing.
The disabled stall is a back in, but the other 7 are pull in. The turn in is a little tight because of the pole front of the charger. one of the poles was already marred by a black car.
Not sure why this wasn't a back in design.

Back-in pedestals can be installed either between the cars perpendicular to the curb, or parallel to and behind the curb. The latter was probably not chosen because of the mature landscaping behind the curb.
