An EV charger of ANY sort would be great on the M7/M2 for those whose only reason to pass through Sydney is because it's in the way.

I was thinking Waitara/Hornsby but not exactly lower north shore... near Campbelltown and Eastern Creek would also be good

So many car places around Artarmon/St Leonards I'd have to guess that Tesla will stay around the area.
Hopefully there will be superchargers at the new location, it would be slightly insane for Sydney to have only the Broadway location.

Agree Artarmon makes sense for Service Centre, doesn’t need to be on a highly visible street like Herbert St.
Super Charger can be elsewhere near a major highway/freeway, above suggestion for Hornsby/Waitara makes sense to me too. Hornsby Westfield an option?

HMMM.... Satellite view of 56-62 Pacific Highway Waitara looks suspicious. Not sure how up to date this is.

Two recent DAs for that site. Nothing mentioning Tesla - do either of those Applicant names ring a bell?
Looks like this bunch: https://www.linkedin.com/company/williams-river-steel/?originalSubdomain=au
They've done another Nissan before, and if memory serves me correctly, 56-62 used to be Nissan and Suzuki Waitara dealerships.

Reason for closing is almost certainly for cost reduction purposes. The lease was probably exorbitant. It would make no sense to spend a fortune on another fitout in the circumstances. I would expect them to take over an existing facility. Anyone know of another available property on the lower north shore?
They are welcome at my place.
Supercharger space out the front.
Room in the back for the workshop
I can do sales.
In return, I want a guarantee that my Supercharging rate will be 100kW+...

I thought it was because the site owner (Reece Plumbing) wanted to take it over for their own purposes?
Nope, they’re gone. Google street view is not up to date.Street view shows that
It’s a new BMW dealership.
The Home HQ in Artarmon parking would be an interesting place for super chargers.. there's a cafe, bathroom facilities, jb's and good guys there at least and anything to pull more customers in
I don't believe they'll do another service centre - it'll just be Alexandria for Sydney (after all all other cities have just the one site also)

Apart from what @m4rtin said, the harbour is a big psychological and physical barrier in this city! There has to be a service centre on the north side of the harbour, because people in Mosman probably think Alexandria is a hub of lawlessness where gangs rule the streets, and will refuse to cross the Harbour Bridge to get there
And those on the south firmly believe you need a passport to cross the bridge!! It isApart from what @m4rtin said, the harbour is a big psychological and physical barrier in this city!

Also further to come north than to go south.
