# Where do robots charge and stage in LA?

**Verdict:** In the LA West Side corridor, 1,183 EV charging stations sit inside the corridor bounding box (LA Geohub, US DOE AFDC), and 57 city-owned parking lots are mapped by LADOT. Both are verified at the source. The one fact a robot fleet needs, which of those lots has a usable ground-floor electrical outlet, is not published in any of those datasets. LA is the best-mapped robot-charging corridor DEPLOY holds, and it still cannot answer, from public data alone, where a delivery robot can reliably plug in overnight.

## EV charging (corridor bounding box)

**1,183 EV charging stations** (basis: verified).

Grain: LA WESTSIDE TIER 3 CHARGING: 1,183 EV charging stations in corridor bbox from LA Geohub (US DOE AFDC source). Examples: LADWP John Ferraro Building 111 N Hope St (338 L2 ports + 12 DCFC), LADWP Truesdale Center 11797 Truesdale St (57 L2 + 2 DCFC), LA Convention Center 1201 S Figueroa St (7 L2). Networks: Shell Recharge, Non-Networked (LADWP), ChargePoint. Total 1,253 alt-fuel stations (includes CNG).

## Where robots can stage

**57 city-owned parking lots** (basis: verified).

Grain: LA WESTSIDE TIER 3 PARKING STAGING: 57 city-owned parking lots in corridor bbox from LADOT Geohub (MapServer/2). Each has name, address, operator, spaces, hours, cost. Examples: Electric Ave & Santa Clara St (Venice, 66 spaces), Broadway St & Spring St (Chinatown, 176 spaces). THIS IS THE ROBOT STAGING CANDIDATE DATASET -- city-owned lots where robots could potentially stage/charge. Ground-floor outlet availability: NOT PUBLISHED in this dataset.

_The ground-floor-outlet gap: neither dataset publishes which lots have a usable electrical outlet a robot could reach. That field is undisclosed. See [do US cities map staging](/do-us-cities-map-where-robots-stage-and-charge.md)._
