Yes, here's a link to a webpage of Tesla's Building Contractor, Scherer Construction, showing the build-out. Tesla Dealership Tampa, FL.

Has anyone heard when the Tampa service center is moving? The new building looks complete so maybe the permits have been closed out.
Apparently not before the end of the month. I'm scheduled for a Model 3 delivery on 9/28 at the current location on US 301.
Although we too will be picking up a Model 3 at US-301 location in mid-September, the MVPA lists the Seller's Address as 11945 N. Florida Ave...
I was told by someone in the auto industry (no automaker affiliation) that the reason the Tampa location is not open is due to an ongoing dispute with the auto dealers association. Since Tesla does not have franchised dealers they cant open this location..
Makes sense, its been more or less ready for almost a a year.. The area it is in is surrounded by new car dealers, Id guess they are pushing hard to keep it from opening.

I doubt that's the reason, there is already a delivery center / showroom with test drives and service center on 301.
And I’ve heard from another source delivery operations will move to the Florida Ave location before the end of the year, and in fact likely well before that time. Too much uncertainty to know what’s actually going on, but I don’t believe the local ADA has the power to stop the move.

Most important thing we need to know is how did the delivery go and when are we going to Car Night at QuakerSteak again!?
I can confirm that deliveries are happening as of today at the new center!
I had my Model 3 in for service on Wednesday (10/17) at 301 and they told me that deliveries are at Florida Avenue location now. My friend went by the Florida Ave location on Thursday (10/18) and no one was there around 4:00pm. Looks like they might only go there when they have deliveries scheduled or they have limited hours. The site is still in flux.
And they said the service center wouldn't be moving from 301 to Florida Ave until probably around the Q1 2019.

I am scheduled for delivery of my Model 3 at the Florida ave location today. I will update this thread once I take delivery with what I find out.
I stopped by at 11:00 to get a reprint of my Monroney sticker. They had 3 Model 3 deliveries going simultaneously, and another guy arrived to take a delivery while I was there. Here's a quick pic of the waiting area.
@Swampgator I wish I had seen your post earlier. We might have been there at the same time!

I just picked my car up at this location. Pretty slow traffic here but all of the employees were super nice. I arrived almost 2 hours early and they had my car ready to go within 30 minutes. The was damn near perfect and had version 9 loaded already. Mike (my delivery specialist) did point out a small gouge on the front door entry plate that I had missed. He said service would reach out to me to fix. Otherwise, the car had a 94% charge (I asked for it to be pretty fully charged as I had a 2 hour drive home) and the paint was perfect. Interior super clean as well. I overhead someone telling some customers that they had been operating out of the location for a few days and deliveries only at this point until service moves over in a few months. This is going to be a really nice location. They have room in the parking garage for literally hundreds of cars.

Noticed when I logged in to my account this afternoon that my scheduled delivery location has changed from the Brandon location to the new service center in Tampa. Kinda excited to check out the new digs.
