Cooling towers exist at many thermal stations because of local
thermal "pollution" (the fish love thermal pollution).

However, without a doubt, the most beutiful idustrial complexes
ever built are nuclear power plants. Architecturally, many plants
are quite impressive, and the grounds at most facilities are
very well maintained. As the energy source is clean, and as
ex-naval officers seem to be in charge at most places, "shine
she must" (run if she will).
