OK take back my previous comments - this is definitely inside 410.

The one on Basse Rd is also inside 410.

they need one close to downtown....

Woo hoo - on the south side of town! For those of us going through SA to points beyond, this is super news!

This is great to finally have a Supercharger this close to downtown SA that should primarily cater to all of tourists and visitors who mainly come to San Antonio just for the downtown activities like the Riverwalk and the Alamo.

This is basically downtown. It's literally less than 10 blocks away from the Alamo and the Riverwalk. How much closer would you want it?

South side? This is a little north of downtown. South side would be King William and below.

Love the irony, located at a former Cadillac dealership...

I did a slow drive past here yesterday. No signs of preparation. There is a lot of road work along here that looks as though it may be a few weeks from completion. Wonder if they will wait for the road work to finish before starting the project.

Forgive my ignorance, but does "Charging Post" corresponding to just one charging stall? In other words, this location appears to be planned for only 4 stalls? It makes me curious for this location, because it's a decent sized parking lot behind a currently unoccupied building, not far from a major freeway interchange. I guess they could have the option of coming back and putting in more stalls in the future.

Yes, “Charging Post” is 1 stall.

This will be a pre-fab install. Instead of installing all the stalls individually, there will be four prefab units dropped in with 4 stalls per prefab; 16 stalls total.

Still no signs of construction as of today, but...

A local news station reports this morning that the city has signed up a 2nd contractor to help finish the road improvements currently ongoing on Broadway. They've done a lot of trenching and utility work, but the road clearly needs a good total repaving now. The news reported that local residents and businesses are very unhappy with the pace of the efforts.

 

[Samurai51]

Update. Nothing, no signs of construction.

Mildly of interest (to me), in this sparsely populated parking lot was a white Rivian R1T. The first white one I've ever encountered.

Looking forward to this new addition

These are pics from yesterday and today. All the fencing, digging and equipment are new from when I last checked here about two weeks ago. I couldn't identify any SC specific equipment on-site. The pics don't show it very well (I was stopped on the road and just snapped a few quick ones) but I could tell they were definitely trenching. From yesterday to today there was also a trench from the corner of the lot (lower left of the pictures) to the center fenced off area.

Looks like a good spot. A coffee shop just south of it. Walk to the river walk lock and dam. Brewing co right next to it.
