Looking for electric car charger stations around town? Destin Commons has them. Recently, electric car charging stations by GoSpace, that can charge up to four cars at a time, were installed as another shopper convenience and another facet of the outdoor lifestyle center’s focus on conservation and being green.

The easy to use electric car chargers are in parking spaces on the north side of Uncle Buck’s Fishbowl & Grill. Just like regular gas pumps, those with an electric car simply plug one of the electric chargers into their car to “fill up” in a very cost effective manner. The electric car charger stations are free.

“We institute as many ‘green’ options as possible at Destin Commons, such as four cardboard recycling locations for tenants, the use of pond and well water for the center’s irrigation, and converting our parking garage to long-life LED lighting, as well as many of the lights in the new expansion area,” said general manager, Bob Perry.
