Thank you @Trevor Burch! You read my mind, tagging and updating them was the next thing I wanted to do. 😀

Looks like the cabinets are on-site but not installed yet. No transformer right now either. Construction is in the back near the car wash so that should help prevent ICEing.

The gas station was very nice and lots of food options within walking distance. Arby’s, McDonald’s, Sonic, Pizza Hut, and Wendy’s.

I’ve seen the “Little Arch” and the Kaskaskia Dragon on the in car nav before but never made the stop. The arch is within walking distance and during the day you should be able to get a neat photo while charging, with it in the background. (Photo 5)

I'm not seeing it in the app yet but the Find Us site makes it look like this is live. (Usually it says Coming Soon Q1 for example.) Is anyone nearby to take a look? I'll try to within the next week or two if possible.

We have juice! ⚡️ Thank you, martalli for testing it out today! Not showing in the app but they were able to charge.
Great splitter between Effingham and the STL area.
