PLEASE MAKE SURE THAT YOU SCROLL DOWN TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS ARTICLE FOR PERIODIC UPDATES:

A member of the Tesla Motors Club forum has discovered the location of the "Coming Soon" Supercharger Station at Tampa - Hyde Park. In searching the online permit records for the City of Tampa he was successful in locating a building permit for a 10 stall Supercharger Station to be located in the parking lot of the Winn-Dixie supermarket at 2100 W Swann Ave, Tampa.

Below is a vicinity map. It is located near the Selmon Crosstown Expressway and about 5 miles south of I-275.

Based on the plans submitted by Tesla for the permit, the red rectangle in the Google street view below of the Winn-Dixie parking shows where the charging stalls will be located.

Based on the permit notes it appears that the construction plans have been approved, a building permit was issued on May 31st, 2018 and the project has just begun to enter the inspection phase.

Update as of June 14, 2018.

Construction has started in the Winn-Dixie parking lot.

Update as of June 21, 2018.

Construction is coming along nicely the 5-Supercharger Cabinets and high voltage switchgear have been installed and 8 of the planned 10 charging terminals have been set.

Update as of June 29, 2018.

It looks like all of Tesla's contractors major work is done. All the Supercharger cabinets, high voltage switchgear, the 10 charging terminals and the utility meter cabinet have been installed. It now remains for the utility equipment to be installed.

Update as of July 26, 2018.

The City of Tampa issued the Certificate of Completion on July 26, 2018. We expect this Supercharger Station to be operational any day now.

Update as of August 1, 2018.

Although the Tesla Find Us map and the the Tesla fleet's navigation systems do not currently show this Supercharger Station as being operation, it has been reported on the Tesla Motors Club forum that the station is in fact operational.

If you live in the area, please visit the location and send me a photo demonstrating that your car is charging. Thanks.
