I happened to be this area yesterday. The construction fencing around where the SD&E transformer will likely go -- street side Mira Mesa Blvd -- is gone now. Everything else still looks the same. Appears to still be waiting for that utility power.

I'm glad these are placed on the sides of the parking spots instead of the back-in type. I think backing in is a challenge for some people, and it contributes to congestion at the chargers as people try to position their cars backing into spaces And I always worried someone would hit me trying to get their car backed into the space next to me.
Yeah, and it cracks me up that so many people -- presumably with a license to drive -- seem to have trouble simply backing into a parking space or trying to parallel park. (With those driving skills, they really need autonomy more than other people!
)I prefer to back into parking spaces because of the improved visibility and ease when leaving the spot.
In a pinch it seems like the stalls on the right of the last picture, it could be an option for those towing, but the sign posts block the driving through of the stall, and also being offset from the next row... Just seems with cybertruck coming and more people towing they would have more options for those...

...or with these (demolition derby) "skills"!

12:55pm Sunday, May 30th - still waiting for the two SDGE transformers: One next to Tesla cabinets and one next to Mira Mesa BLVD in the Blink AT&T lot.
In the past, slow supercharger activation hasn't been SDG&E's fault, at least in the really slow cases I'm thinking of (San Juan Capistrano and Qualcomm). But those are pretty old, now. Maybe you have some more recent cases in mind?
No, nothing specific in mind. Mostly just not a fan of SDG&E, I guess.
Currently charging at Qualcomm, my old stomping grounds. I saw elsewhere in the forum that two new supercharger sites are to be set up in Carmel Valley. The more the merrier, though it is pretty quiet over at the QC site today.
It's not much different today. Really, the only difference seems to be some mulch added around where the SDG&E transformer will go on the side of the road. 
And, the timeline for this getting done is as blurry as peering through the wrapping that's still around the Superchargers!

I am driving down from SF to do some Supercharging Hunting during the upcoming Free Charging Weekend. Murphy's Law says that the second I leave town they'll flip on the power at this charger. I'll add it to my route just in case.
Woot! That's breaking news. Tesla's map and supercharge.info don't even show them open yet.
