So.... obviously the trick is to name your town 'Seaside'. Tesla seems to like the name. Let's see.... Seaside, Nebraska (well - COULD BE!!!)

Funny, we were just there 2 weeks ago for a wedding. Flew into Portland - rented ICE to get to Seaside/Canon Beach. Didn't take the Tesla because were concerned about charging options on the coast.

Did not do SC scouting while there.... ahhh well.

Next trip to Northwest, we will return via coast - absolutely beautiful drive. I applaud Tesla for their choice of SC locations and await the final coastal connections down from Seattle to San Francisco.

Other than the SC being built within the heart of a tsunami inundation zone, I like it.

What's the SC etiquette during an impending Tsunami?

The Seaside, OR Supercharger Station is Now Open

Just in time for my trip to Long Beach WA next week. Thanks, Tesla.

Sweet. Having the half-dozen or so AeroVironment ChaDeMos along the Oregon Coast last year made it easy to extend travel a week without having to schlep back to I-5.

With Seaside lit up and Lincoln City and so forth next, I may just go up next week and stay the rest of the month. Easy peasy.

For those who haven't done the Oregon Coast yet, do try to go sooner than later. The (art deco and other) bridges alone are worth the trip, which is saying something as everything else is even more beautiful. Plus there's world-class ale (See Degarde, Deschutes, Cascade).

Photos of new Seaside superchargers. Never seen this stacked configuration.

Yeah, I've never seen that configuration before either. I wonder if this is a one-off or is this the shape of things to come?

Some of the foreign locations have started showing up similar to this. But expect it may be as much about where the property owner wants to allow Tesla to be. Here's an Electrek story on Tesla working with fuel stations in Jordan and shows a similar config. Saw couple photos of Europe locations too, but can't recall where those were.

They have those in other places too. Petaluma is the same design.

If they pair the front and back pedestals that would help keep people from pulling into the wrong spot.

Interesting…

But I wish Tesla would get the 101 Superchargers in Eureka and Crescent City built first… With the CHAdeMO's on the OR coast, Superchargers are nice, but not quite as critical.

We'll be driving up the coast from AZ to BC in July -- so hoping both of these are open (and keeping my fingers crossed on NorCal -- although we already have at hotel reservation in Eureka so we can charge overnight…)

As reported this week in the Crescent City SC thread, construction there is actually well under way and should be completed in the next few weeks. Then it will be up to PG&E to turn on the power. Next will be Eureka. By September, both should be operational.

Petaluma, to name one.

Rocklin also.

Can you post some photos of the SC construction in Crescent City so we can see the progress?

 

[EV-lutioin]

I am not quite sure how to edit the TMC supercharger wiki page, but it needs to be updated to include the new SC in Seaside, OR as completed.

Perfect timing for my Oregon Coast trip next week!!!

Oops, my bad, I got these switched. It's actually the Eureka site that is already in construction and the Crescent City site that will follow (based on info from the crew on site at Eureka). There is a picture of the Eureka site in its SC thread.
