Check out the Tannersville and Whitehall threadsThis is GREAT NEWS! Let's hope for another SC further down I81. Maybe at I80/I81 interchange? Hazelton? Harrisburg PA is rumored to be in the works/planning. I81 is a key corridor, so let's hope we keep it going at least down to mid-atlantic region...
Holy Cow that was fast!
How fast? Let's see if we can put a number on it - the best info I can offer is:
1. 10/2 i heard from a Tesla rep that "We are getting much closer now; only awaiting one additional permit and hope to start construction late next week. Keep your eyes peeled and you’ll see some movement soon enough! We are 100% committed to our site and are pushing forward as quick as possible." So let's say "late next week" would've meant Thursday, Oct. 8 when a shovel went in the ground.
2. On Sun. 10/18 i drove by the site and saw the excavation done and some basic equipment at the site.
3. On Sun. 11/1 i saw the site appear on my map, and came here to find pics of cars sucking in juice, hallelujah.
I submit then 24 days from ground breaking to charging. That's the fastest i've ever seen since i took delivery of my S in Dec. 2012!

Wow! Wow! Wow! That was fast...
One of the signs is falling on its side, but that should be an easy fix.
Cool, that will cut significant time off my next trip to NY/NJ!
This is the thread to discuss the Binghamton, NY Supercharger.
Edit 11/02/15--The Binghamton Supercharger is open! It opened some time on 11/01/15.
Edit 10/15/15--The location has been discovered, and it will be The Spot Restaurant! (Thanks, jrreno!)
The Spot Restaurant
1062 Front Street
Binghamton, NY 13905
Open 5:00 AM to 11:00 PM seven days a week.
Most of the history of what has taken place before this can be found in this thread:
Help Get A Supercharger in Binghamton, NY – Minimal Action Requested
I'll try to summarize some of the highlights below:
In early November, 2014 Genedr started this thread--
http://www.teslamotorsclub.com/showt...d-local-advice
I saw that thread, and being new to the forums misunderstood things and thought that he had some direct ties to the Supercharger Team, and that they were, through him, coming to the forums because they were now actively looking for a Binghamton Supercharger site. I suggested “The Spot Diner Restaurant." I picked "The Spot" because of the great location just off Route 81, easily accessible heading in either direction, and very close to Route 88, while also being within a couple of miles of the Route 17 and Route 81 interchange. I also thought the long hours the business was open and the fact that it was a diner would make it a great choice.
Gene and I corresponded some privately, and the result was that I called the owner of “The Spot”, still under the mistaken impression that the Tesla Supercharger Team was actively interested in Binghamton. It was a great call, and I explained a lot about what having a Supercharger at his location would mean. He was interested in hearing more, and I (mistakenly) told him that someone from the Tesla Supercharger team would contact him.
It was only later, when following up with Gene that I learned of my misunderstanding, and that based on the owner’s interest, Gene would be submitting “The Spot” through the Tesla Supercharger site submission form. Gene and I strategized a bit, and we thought that with both of us submitting “The Spot,” and also writing to the team independently, perhaps the Supercharger Team would take action. After a couple of weeks, when neither Gene nor I had heard back from the team, I started the thread above, to try to basically start a write-in campaign for "The Spot."
Many TMC members helped, and recommended the location. Within just a few days someone from the Supercharger Team reached out to me to let me know that they would be exploring options in Binghamton.
On July 4, 2015 MaturinNYC posted that he had heard from a member of the Supercharger Team that they had selected a site near the I-81 and I-88 Interchange in Binghamton, and that they were in the final design stage.
On August 31, 2015 yobigd20 reported that two weeks earlier Tesla had replied to him saying that the Binghamton Supercharger was next, and would be built by the "end of the summer."
On September 2, 2015 CHRGIT reported that Tesla's "Coming Soon" Supercharger map had been updated to reflect a charger coming soon in Binghamton.
On September 24, 2015 MaturinNYC reported that he had heard from the Supercharger team again back on September 9. They wrote, "Yes, we have continued to make progress in Binghamton and are close to entering construction on our site there. Construction and energization usually takes between 4-6 weeks, so we are getting close now! Thanks for your continued support!"
As of October 3, 2015 we still do not know the location of the site. It could be "The Spot Restaurant", or as others have suggested, it could be SUNY Binghamton, or other businesses on Front Street. We hope to determine the location soon.
And that's the summary to date.
we should work on roscoe diner on 17.
I've already submitted it. The more people that submit it, the better. The URL to the Supercharger site suggestion submission form is below.

I couldn't find an email address for them
I don't recall what I used, as I submitted The Roscoe Diner quite a while ago. I did a quick search, and found the following email address for them on Trip Advisor: [email protected]
The Roscoe Diner Supercharger that @Andyw2100 and @silverp85+ suggested has broken ground.
