Tesla’s Cutting-Edge Supercharger Diner Combo: A Visual Journey Through 9 Months of Construction
Tesla’s groundbreaking Supercharger, diner, and drive-in theater concept in Los Angeles is starting to take shape as the company approaches nine months of vigorous construction. This multi-faceted project, envisioned by CEO Elon Musk, is not just about recharging your car; it’s about recharging your soul with the nostalgia of the 1950s. The construction site recently reached a milestone, and the progress has been meticulously chronicled by 247Tesla's YouTube channel, offering us a glimpse into the fascinating journey from concept to reality.
The First Steps: Breaking Ground and Setting the Pace
The journey began in September when Tesla officially broke ground. Fast forward just a month, and initial construction frames were already visible. The site quickly transformed from a barren plot into something with the semblance of a diner-Supercharger hybrid. Early snapshots captured by 247Tesla showed the first beams of what would soon be a bustling hub of activity.
Midway Through: The Vision Materializes
About four months in, the structure began to take a more defined shape. Aerial footage from Fox 11 Los Angeles revealed a skeletal framework, outlining what would become an exquisite marriage of a vintage diner and cutting-edge Supercharger station. By six months, the progress was undeniable. YouTubers and onlookers alike marveled at the rapid development, as Tesla's unique creation steadily approached its envisioned form.
The Final Stretch: Nearing Completion
As the project entered its seventh and now ninth month, each passing week brought the dream closer to fruition. Seven-month updates revealed a nearly finished exterior, while the latest footage shows a fully formed structure ready for its final touches. These updates have built palpable excitement as Tesla aficionados and curious locals alike await the grand opening.
The Vision behind Tesla’s Supercharger Diner
The idea originated in 2018 when Musk tweeted his vision of a unique Supercharger station that combined a 1950s-style diner and a drive-in theater. Named “Milliways” after the restaurant at the edge of the galaxy in The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, the project initially went quiet. However, Tesla’s perseverance paid off as permits were acquired, and a suitable location was found in West Hollywood. Renderings created by Twitter user HowardModelS became the official template for the build, illustrating the ambitious vision perfectly.
According to Tesla’s site plans, the complex will feature around 32 Supercharger stalls. Patrons can indulge in diner food on an upper deck while watching classic movie clips as their vehicles charge. The combination of vintage aesthetics and modern functionality is set to offer a novel, memorable experience.
