Niles Generating Station, Ohio

Commissioned in 1954 along the Mahoning River in Ohio, the Niles Generating Station remaining boilerhouse was unfortunately imploded on April 14th. This plant had two generators each one producing around 132 Megawatts to give electricity for the nearby cities.

It's been online for 58 years, closing in 2012 and sitting abandoned till now. Another piece of industrial history gone for good. RIP

You miss 100% of the shots you don't take.

I always wonder how people get power on in some abandoned places. The single working fluorescent bulb in the third image gave me a chuckle.

This one had power up until the year it came down. Made getting around inside discreetly pretty easy. It also kept the cameras running though.

Nice set OP, Glad it was documented properly.

Yeah I remember getting in there between two rounds of the caretaker/security, all the cams were on inside the plant as we saw in his office, and we didn't have much time to explore more unfortunately. Still glad of what I got from there
