[tedsla]

Great news.

@Jdcleary - Now we need to work on your state!

 

[vinnie97]

And neighboring Nebraska.

 

[W0QR]

Nebraska..YES!

 

[MSEV]

Another yes for Nebraska (and very glad of IA)!

Drove by on Sunday when we were passing through and they were working on the excavation.

 

[Fuzzy]

I will passing through August 19th. Anyone think there a chance this will be complete?

 

[B Lo]

Nope. Average construction time must be close to 2 months. I bet start of September is the most optimistic possible date

While the wife was shopping last night, I snapped a few photos with the Phantom. Looks like they still have quite a ways to go, but are making nice progress.

Great Pictures David!
We are heading north in a few weeks so we don't expect it to be operational. However, in mid-September, we will be returning and expect to use it. Fingers crossed.

 

[MSEV]

We may need them first week in October!

There were workers there yesterday afternoon. Still a long was to go.

 

[W0QR]

Just saw on Reddit that they are installed and ready to be booted. Still have the covers on but this week I'll betcha.

The Minneapolis ones have been in that state for like a month. They got the stations up quick but they aren't ready to rock yet.

 

[DDarrow]

Looks like the majority of the equipment is in place. No empty slab like the one in Coralville.

Walls going up today.

 

[Jdcleary]

Walls going up today.

Love to see the progress, thanks David for keeping the pictures coming. We will visit the site personally this Friday afternoon but will need to stay at the Holiday Inn and charge at much slower speeds. Hopefully they have tried to fix the problems they have with their destination chargers.

No prob! Wasn't aware there had been some issues with the Holiday Inn chargers. Hope all goes well for you this time. If you want (or need) to, you're welcome to use our charger again. Have a safe trip!

There is no actual problem with them, they are destination chargers for overnight charging.
