One more view from the air, looking down the Allegheny River. Pittsburgh is 30 miles downstream. The tracks on the left of the plant ate the Allegheny Valley Railroad, which became PRR in 1910, and are now owned by the Kiski Junction.
Most of the buildings were barrel houses and have been torn down because all the were were covered barrel racks. The picture below is one that is a cutaway view as the building was falling down on its own. They finally brought in some equipment to finish the job getting it down, but it is still just a pile of 4X4 rubble
