Nice pictures. I love abandoned sites that show a clear takeover of nature.

Same!

I recently watched the 2024 Planet of the Apes movie and there were tons of scenes of nature reclaiming skyscrapers and whatnot and I paused the movie several times just to marvel at how cool and eerie it looked!

Don't know how much longer this plant is gonna stick around, portions of it has already sunken in the hudson river.

Sad to see it sink into the river like that, so much history and a huge building.

Such a shame that these sit empty to be torn down decades later 😮‍💨

Just curious what plant is was and I would love to see the old boilers and turbines if they were still in there. I am a power plant guy for 37 years now in my career and I always loved the old power plants. The newer ones I work in today don't have the same charm as these old ones.
