Description
Elongated southerly view of the rows of buildings
perpendicular to the Main Plant. These buildings were razed in 2000 - except for the façade of the Main Plant - to facilitate the construction of the Southbridge Hotel and Conference Center. A creeper is growing on the lower
parts of the buildings. The view provides an insight into the sheer
size of the buildings - on the left side the building is four floors
high and the building on the right is five stories high. The clock
tower with its tall spire is pointing majestically in the background.
