This *giant* underground chamber is one of the most amazing structures I've come across under Australian soil. I believe the lights no long work unfortunately. Used as a giant overflow for er... ah nothing to see here.
It is an old photo, ~sept 2002. I'm not sure if the lights still work, I heard a rumour they do not. Manually lighting an area of this size would be an impressive undertaking.
I love the urban photography and I love the idea of exploring places like this but being in america I just cant make it to these locations for the most part so a little more explnation on the purpose of the location and just a little more technical information as to what some of these places are and used for thanks
True, very true Pizzy. That place does look extremely huge, indeed. I could come up with a hundered thoughts on the type of err...stuff that once came through there...and shiver at each one. Eww. I bet it smelled bad, too. hehe
Just a question for {scale}. How big are those lights, say as opposed to a standard light bulb?I don't see how this joint might work, but I think I know where I can find one!!!
Or atleast, a sewarage treatment plant, I dunno what I'll find. Hopefully a supposed overflow?NICE FIND SHOULDA DONE A 360 SHOT
Actually this place quite often doesn't smell at all. It got blocked off for a couple of years and now really stinks. It should come good again in time.I would say, at a guess, that it's about twenty meters longer than a hockey field.4 meters high.Nice loctaion - (check my home link)
Lights are working, new breakers installed, not sure about the ventilation, I have an irrational fear of anything HVAC related, wasn't to keen on screwing around with the control panel either :P
