Gigafactory Texas! This is where Model Y’s, and Cyber Truck production happens and soon, the Next Generation Car!
More rains & strong storms came through last night, and some lingering clouds when I arrived, but visibility was pretty good! Lots of activity on the south end, and for the first time, we see Cybertrucks stored in the multi-level parking garage, mainly on the west and south sides and on several different floors. I'm not sure if this is a concerted change in process to clear out the old testing lot, or if this was related to weather last night, but this is a significant change!

A few other highlights to call out in the images and video to look for include:
The south end extension continues to make progress on multi-le fronts, including more concrete on the inside, additional pipes, bollards, electrical boxes on columns and more floor & roof decking being applied to the steel structure. The structure itself is nearly completed, with the sole crane at work on the small section of open space on the east side.
Crews were also adding more glass panels on the southwest cornet, while other crews were busy installing more roof insulation panels and weatherproof membranes to help complete the roof and keep the rains out of the main structure.
At the structural cooling platform, more of the Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (FRP) scaffolding was being installed on the roof, and I provide a informational discussion on what these are and how this may look once completed. This is from a company called EVAPTECH, which is a subsidiary of EVAPCO.
As mentioned, the multi-level parking garage is rapidly being completed, with most of the lights installed on the roof, along with painted parking slots, while in other areas, crews were working on stairwells, elevator shafts and concrete prep for the ground slab on the far east side of the structure. Lane markings are also visible just inside the north end, and I would think we will see asphalt paving around the structure in the next few weeks to allow the entire structure to be used without having to drive through mud.
On the east side of casting, the mud base on top of the screw-type piers is completed, as are most of the forms, and today, we see crews laying out rebar which will form the reinforced slab of the future bag House filtration system. Further to the north, another large section where concrete was removed shows some trenching and prep work to allow more screw-type pier installation as well as continued reconfiguring of the three loading docks. More of the collectors for the furnaces or the Bag House plant and related parts were stored outside this area today.
Finally, conduit trenching, installation and concrete vault placement continued on the northeast corner of casting and at Tesla Road, where crews were preparing to extend the conduit south under Tesla Road to eventually connect to the northeast casting area.
