So, what are we to do about that old wastewater plant that’s just sitting there like something out of a really bad Stephen King movie?

Decommissioned some years ago, the facility stands along a bend of the Bonnechere River, and now that it’s been replaced in function by something else, it just sits there, a problem waiting to become a bigger problem.  As with all abandoned buildings, you’re going to find broken windows, open windows, degraded material no longer safe for anyone, and three gawdawfully large tanks that were once filled with water, now standing silent, with water without purpose.  And as with many other abandoned buildings, there’s almost a siren call that can be heard by anyone who claims membership in Renfrew’s homeless community.
