Montreal's Incinérateur Dickson

[jerm IX]

Constructed in 1954-55 in Montreal's east end, Incinérateur Dickson burned garbage and spewed pollutants into the air for over two decades before ceasing operations in 1978, partially due to public outcry.

For those interested, a more thorough look into Montreal's history with incinerators, Incinérateur Dickson, and more photos can be found here...
