Plugged in to the 3 pin socket with my own cable, flicked the switch on and charged no problems. I did phone union square car park before hand in the morning and they put a cone in front of a space for me. At lunch time when we arrived 4 ICE were parked in EV spaces. So, even though there were other spaces, I suggest reserving a space beforehand, just in case. It doesn't cost anything to reserve a space.

Sign InAll official sockets currently broken, but there is one space a little beyond these bays, just before the parent and child bays, that has access to a socket behind some pipes. Site owners have been happy to let me use this.
All 8 sockets (for the 10 bays) currently broken due to being hit by bumpers of cars parking in these bays.
Very poorly signposted so guaranteed to be ICEd when at all busy. Sockets at bumper height with no protection so frequently damaged.
These sockets seems to share the same circuit, so if more than one car plugs in then the last one gets the charge and the others get cut off!

Ice ice baby! All but one occupied by non electric cars! And only 3mph - could try harder:)
10 spaces all iced! And 3mph charge rate nice!
