RIP Lakeview

[siologen]

Bye Bye to the largest and (at the time when i first had the pleasure of exploring it) most intact abandoned Power station ive ever seen.

Lakeview Generating Station (to use the Canadian terminology), Missisauga, Canada.

Sad that another one goes down, but that was a great demolition. I've been to two explosive demolitions so far, one of a fairly small bridge and the other of two reasonably tall buildings. Juila Solis (Dark Passage/Ars Subterranea) actually ran an implosion mailing list for a while.

They never implode buildings here, always demolish them the slow way using bulldozers and caterpillers.

I think in the case of Lakeview its cos the block of land it was on was so big and surrounded by a sewage works and the lake.
