No, not really. Only the boiler house is coming down. The turbine hall is to be kept in place for use as a warehouse. The chimney is also staying put; as it is a local landmark.

A standing monument... Until they decided what to do with the land. The whole area is full of warehouses and stuff, so I'm not surprised that the remnants of the site could become further storage areas for the time being.

Cheers mate Glad you liked the photos! Yeah, when I immediately saw that the turbines were missing (some were thrown outside), I was pretty disappointed. The control room was something special though.
