Description
An out-of-service power plant located down the river from High Falls, Beebe Station was used to produce power as early as the early 1900's, and was shut down by RG&E in 1999. Two of the plant's three smokestacks were torn down in 2007. The remaining smoke stack has the words "High Falls" painted on it.1 This plant often comes up in discussions of potential structures to explore. Little is known about access to the site. However, it is worth noting that tar residue at the plant may pose a health risk to would be explorers. There is also a fair deal of asbestos throughout the structure. Anyone entering the older sections of this complex should bring at least an N100 respirator. It appears that part of the complex is still in use by RG&E to house some auxilliary functions like equipment certification so it's unlikely the property will be totally empty. The inside is still powered, but has many old appliances, motors, paperwork, etc. See Rochester Environmental Issues for discussions.
