Boilers are usually remote from the turbines and connect to the smoke stack - this is probably a condenser and this is probably a multistage turbine system. The condenser would be under the low pressure turbine it condenses the waste steam back to water for return to the boiler. The turbine(s) to the left of the big turbine are the high and medium pressure turbines, which receive steam from the boiler. The low pressure turbine receives steam from the high and medium pressure turbines (the big overhead pipe on the turbines) to use up the rest of the energy in the steam. At least that is the usual setup. :)
