Power plant, factory???????

Post by piplnr65656 »

What do you people think this is? I saw it yesterday and was going to go back this weekend and explore it. I was running late for a meeting when drove by it so I did not have a chance to realy study it. I made a quick loop around it and it seems to have been abandoned for a very long time. I am not sure what it is and I can't find it listed in any UE web sites.

I would guess an old powerplant with how tall the windows are.

Obviously it's Harborside Financial center, can't you read?! :wink:


That is a beautiful building and it begs exploration.

I vote power plant as well. Where is it? New York? Old DC plant?

I wish I owned a place like that... it would make an awesome secret lair for me when I use that awesome ray gun I've been working on that turns people inside out.

So I could not wait to go check this place out and I had nothing to do all afternoon so I went back. It was raining hard so the construction site accross the street was vacant and provided a nice area where no one could see me. The place is sealed up tight but not everywhere and with a very minimal amount of climbing the place can easly be accessed. This building used to be the power plant for Jersey City and Hoboken but has since been stripped of gear and now the back of the building is the main power substation for Jersey City and Hoboken. Since it is still a working site and the police it this part of the world are notorious for slapping people with anti-terrorist laws since 9-11-01 these are the only pics to share. There is a big abandoned warhouse behind the place but that is a story for another time.

That place is beautiful.

The first pic reminds me of something out of Half Life 2 maybe...
