Exploring Ruins of Coal Fired Power Plant in Chicago
January 1st, 2020They don’t mention it in the video, but you can clearly see that this is Crawford Generating Station:
Crawford Generating Station is a decommissioned coal?fired power plant built in 1924. It is located in South Lawndale community of the West Side district, in Chicago, Illinois.
It was closed in 2012 after a long battle with the community over pollution, like the nearby Fisk Generating Station. Both stations were owned and operated by Midwest Generation, a subsidiary of Edison International. Crawford and Fisk Stations were among the last standing coal generating facilities within a major U.S. city at their time of retirement.
This has a very Lost/Escape from Tarkov aesthetic with some amount of electricity still running in the facility.
