Have you seen me?

Hey guys, my first post, but I've been a fan of the site for quite a while now. Ok, so to the point. I'm wondering of a certain place in Waldorf, MD along Crain HWY and Rt 5 (if you head northeast on Crain from Rt 5 toward the Beltway). You can see a few tall smokestacks from the highway and I want to say it's either across from the Chili's or it's further down Crain/Branch Ave and it's behind the new Target. I can't remember right now. Hope that description helps. Someone who knows something please let me know either here in the boards if it's kosher or via PM. I'd love to know more about this place!

You aren't talking about the NRL dishes, are you? Since they're long gone.

Get down, girl, go 'head, get down.

Nope. These are smokestacks like they belong to a factory or power plant of some kind. I've seen them quite a few times over the past year since I moved to the SOMD.

You could try:

1)Looking it up in Google Earth.

I'm not from your area, and I found it in less than 5 minutes from your description. There are cars and trucks in the parking lot, and well-maintained landscaping. It's definitely in use (as of when the satellite image was taken).

2)Drive past it. It's right on Cedarville Rd. Shouldn't be too hard to find since you can see the stacks from the highway.

Looks to me like a natural gas power plant due to the lack of significant loading bays and the huge storage tank.

In places forgotten, tread where you will. -=- http://www.flickr.com/photos/avius/

You may be right. Google Earth doesn't show it well, but Bird's Eye does. I'm going to head up there this weekend and I'll know for sure.

Try wikimapia.org. Occasionally I get a lucky hit there.
