As of yesterday midday, this site was tidy, buttoned up, and apparently dormant. The BlueBox container is still onsite with power equipment parked in front of its doors. The supercharger cabinets and distribution cabinet are installed on their slab. The conduit and poured slab for the transformer are in place, but no transformer. There are no charging posts installed on the bases. There is a large spool full of cable on site. All the trenches are filled but there is some paving to be done.

I can't tell from the pics, but is there a second smaller conduit at each base next to the larger conduit? There is a California site (Bakersfield) that has that setup and Tesla Energy is doing the install. It is different than any other V3 so there is the possibility that it might be V4 which would make sense why all the bases and cabinets are installed but no posts. Usually the posts are the first things up and the cabinets come later. There might be a delay in V4 equipment making it to actual sites. Or it has something to do with Magic Docks.

Kind of a bad picture but the site was extremely active with workers and didn’t want to get in the way. You can’t see it but they also have the standard trash and recycling cans installed too.
@Mrbrock It's VERY strange behavior for them to be pulling cable while the posts are still not on site... This may lend credibility to your idea that this is a V4 site. Let's hope we find out soon. @UNCLe definitely keep the updates rolling on this location. :)

It doesn’t look like they are pulling cable to the charge posts. It appears they are just pulling the DC bus cables ad other cables from the switchgear to the cabinets but there is not cable sticking out at the posts.
