I see, did you ever had to wait?

The latest update: looks like about half the solar panels are installed! The northern most array is the smallest and is fully covered. The middle bay is mostly covered, but none added on the southern bay.

 

[Michael100]

No. I have had the last available stall.

 

[newjacka]

any updates?

 

[Michael100]

The solar roofs are complete. Still dirt. The building is still under construction.

 

[smilepak]

So total 36 stations once the solar is complete?

no I think the plans were for 62 Total on Site?

 

[Michael100]

There two are sites separated by an alley. 26 are open, 36 are coming soon.

 

[MelaniainLA]

Lots of progress here. See photos.

36 more stations with solar canopy.

My question is: what’s this smaller building in the back? Bathrooms? Something else??

 

[4SUPER9]

My guess is bathrooms. Not quite the diner that was originally planned (now planned for Hollywood), but good to have nonetheless.

@bmah , perhaps a title change is in order? "36 stall expansion in progress"

I know they have used this style canopy in the past and are familiar with it, but I wonder with a lot this size why they didn't just solar canopy the entire thing.

They built the first half because of the massive need for charging in the area,
now they're building the 2nd half, they'll finish the solar on 2nd half,
then once that is open they'll go back to 1st half and complete the solar on 1st half

I get this, but they are just using those big metal things that only cover the parking spots. What I meant was literally canopy the entire lot.

Shows 62 stalls avail in vehicle map. Is the entire site operational now?

Nope, only the first section of 26 stalls available for use. The other section is still fenced off.

 

[israndy]

I'm dyxlexic, I have that same issue ALL the time. I could SWEAR I saw 62!!

I’m not. It said 62 stalls.

 

[4SUPER9]

I’m not. It said 62 stalls.

my navigation still says 62 stalls

 

[rayluis1988]

That probably is because the expansion is close to open. Thats my best guess. My best friend goes to charge there very often and he said it looked almost comolete.
