That looks like such a stunning place! Really good to hear it will be restored and not torn down to make some hideous shopping center.
My first thoughts are it looks very 'moulin rouge'.

Q: How do you make a drummers' car faster?
A: Take off the Domino's sign!

I'm allowed to joke, I have my 12 piece set of Ludwig Vistalites in the music cave! Coincidentally, my drummer was the first person to whom I sent this link...(He and his wife shoot weddings, etc.)

Wow! It's gorgeous. I'm so glad to hear it's going to be restored in the original style - to many places get torn down.

Good rfeence photo for the size of the generators, typical handrails are 32"-36" high, based on 32" they appear to be about 12' tall.

BTW, awesome subject, your shots, as always are incredable!

My great-great grandmother is buried in the potter's field/hospital cemetery after spending the last 23 years of her life at KPPC. She is in an unmarked grave like most, but I'll hopefully be placing a marker there soon. Maps exist of at least some of the occupants, and my gg-GM was lucky to be one of those marked. So sad that she's been forgotten...but not for much longer if I can help it.
