And if you are interested how these were built here is a scan of a book found at one of the boiler rooms before it was demoed.

Hot damn!

So your photos there are from 2007?

We explored "N" in 2009. My photos from back then are horrible..

Station N was the last holder standing only because none of the local demo companies wanted to leave equipment in the area just during lunch brake let alone over night.

Great infomation from both of you, ccsucher and SubLunar !
Growing up here in StL in the '40s and onward, I've always wondered about them - I had not realized there were five layers.
They always seemed like things from an antediluvian world.

Thanks!

Just in case you took the time to view the book, I noticed this page was missing.

Has anyone been inside the pumping station? I was walking by today (didn't see a way in, but wasn't really looking that hard). Could see through some windows and it looks neat inside, but I think it's got a foot or two of water in the main room... and been emptied of its machinery (unless it is in the upper area closer to the hwy).

Which pump house, the one off Natural Bridge called Station N?

There is nothing left Laclede related on the property anymore.
