Supercharger - Rochester, MN

[ThisIsTrue]

Searched and didn't find this otherwise mentioned:

Hy-Vee has submitted plans to the city for the addition of an eight-stall Tesla electric charging station in the parking lot of its Crossroads store at 500 Crossroads Drive SW.

Heard on the Street: Hy-Vee charges ahead with plans for Tesla station

Good find! Have sent it through to supercharge.info

I don't remember seeing the "limited hours" designation on other Supercharger sites. Will this be open only limited hours?

 

[SageBrush]

I just might have to consider a road trip instead of flying when we visit our son in WI

 

[svp6]

Great addition for the city, will allow driving from Minneapolis / St. Paul to Rochester even in the worst Minnesota winter days.

Supercharge.info now has a permit listed in Rochester at the Hy-Vee at 500 Crossroads Drive SW. Does anyone have any other info? We're visiting family there at Thanksgiving and I'd love to have this done as they live in a condo without convenient charging.

 

[emupilot]

There is a thread in the wrong place with all the information we have here. That thread should probably be combined into this one.

Finally! I've been waiting for this charger. I drive by this place every day on my way to work which is only 1/4 mile away. I'll post pics if/when I see any updates at the site. I had really been hoping that the superchargers would be going into the parking lot at the mall which is really close to this. Not really a good walking distance from the Hy-vee to the mall.

Thank you Beolkers, that is hugely appreciated!

I gave Hy-Vee a call, they were extremely nice, offering to check into details for me. The *plan* is to have them in by the end of SEPTEMBER, 2017! They will be located in the NW corner of the parking lot behind the store and near the bridge. They expect to start construction any day.

I'm very excited because a RT to there is near the end of my range, and I have to take my dad to Mayo Clinic in October. I'll certainly be giving some business to Hy-Vee.

(Should I report my trip there to anyone, take photos? I'm going mid-October.)

Fantastic! I'd love to see your pictures if you're willing. I plan to ask my father in law to keep an eye on it (it's his closest Hy-Vee) so I'll post any news I hear as well.

I work right by this HyVee and drive past it every day. I plan on stopping to take pictures and post any updates as they happen.

Work will begin on 9/13 according to the Dig Service ticket!

I stopped by this location on my way through town.

The NW corner of the parking lot is roped off with a little plastic fence. 8 stalls are blocked off. No other indication of supercharger activity but I'd say it's pretty likely that that is where they are going in and hopefully it's a sign that construction will begin shortly.

 

[boelkers]

Please ignore the bug guts on my windshield. I was in a hurry so I didn't have a chance to get out and take more pictures but site work is underway.

 

[boelkers]

Take a look at this thread:
Supercharger - Rochester, Minnesota
Work started at the site yesterday and I did take a quick picture. More to follow.

 

[Jondaddyg]

I'd give you about a 1% chance of being able to use it on September 30th.

Best Wishes!!

I dropped by it again yesterday. They have the conduit in place but no electrical cables yet. They were pouring cement for the curb. Forms were in place for the Supercharger pads and the transformer pad. They are moving along quickly. I've heard they want the station opened before Oct 1st but time will tell if they are able to do that. The crates with the superchargers have not arrived yet.
