Big Allis
Ravenswood Generating Station in Long Island City, commonly known as "Big Allis"
after the million-kilowatt Allis-Chalmers generator inside, was opened in 1963 by Con Edison.
At the time, it was the largest electrical generating unit in the world.
I am biking over the 59th St (Ed Koch) Bridge from Queens into Manhattan and I got this gorgeous view
looking up the East River. Big Allis is on the right.
