09/04 - Concrete, Salzburg

On our way from the train station to the old town we passed by a large concrete building with a tall chimney, the Heizkraftwerk. We knew nothing about this former power station when we were there. I took a photo of it because it seems very interesting to me. The concrete seems nicely built. Not until I returned to Canada do I find out that many locals actually hate the building, especially the contemporary addition completed in 2003. They see the new concrete addition as a total waste of tax money.
