Supercharger - Union City, CA - Alvarado Niles Rd. (LIVE 14 Feb 2022, 12 V3 stalls)

[Zorg]

Inquired from the city and got the following information. It looks like it will be by Safeway. Of note, there's a Boba place in the plaza as well.

Nice work finding this!

PS. I recommend Caffe:IN for drinks...not sure if that's the drink place you had mind @Zorg. They're co-located with Bar Bay Grill, which has good food. Mr. Green Bubble isn't bad (but the Piedmont location has better snacks). I also like Baby Cafe across Decoto Road. Geez. Now I'm getting hungry.

We've only gone to Greenbubbles. I actually prefer Tea4. At any rate, there are food options and it's only a mile from the house.

Wagers on whether the MY ordered on 5/24 is delivered before the SC is live (permit approved 6/8)?

LoL, based on current demand, anything is possible!

 

[Zorg]

Well, the red area is now closed off for work. I assume that it will be the location of the SC. Right next to the Chevron gas station.

Looks like construction is about to start

Wish it was near the highway next to target. Not a bad location either.
If you stop for a while to charge, check out Sama Uyghur across the street.

Hello, do you think they will be v3 chargers or those urban superchargers?

Based on the pictures, they show bases with oval profile. That means it's not going to be Urban. So, V2 or V3. Likely V3 even though the cabinet pictures are not conclusive by my casual inspection.

12 @ 250kw per supercharge.info

 

[Zorg]

Do they even make v2 chargers anymore?

I don’t think so. I have only seen v3 and urban chargers since v3 was released.

I believe that they will install V2 chargers as expansions to existing V2 sites if memory serves me right they are doing one in Santa Monica atm.

Stopped at Caffe:In and Bar Bay Grill for afternoon tea today. Took a few pictures over the construction fence...all of these were shot over the north side of the fence. It doesn't seem like much has happened since the last set of pictures. It looks like equipment is being staged near the Safeway side of the construction area. Some excavation might have taken place along Alvarado-Niles. Admittedly not the best pictures one could get, but I don't think there's much exciting happening right now anyway.

@corywright @MarcoRP @Chuq I suggest adjusting the GPS coordinates slightly closer to Alvarado-Niles Road, maybe something like (37.587127613789896, -122.02044161413397)

Funny, I was there around 3:30pm today taking a peek from behind the fence.

Haha, missed you by about 45 minutes. I was there at 2:47 (according to the EXIF timestamps on my photos).

Thanks @bmah, co-ords updated!
