Posted by lil-trouble 11/18/2005 5:03 PM | remove   I did take that a little side ways. lol Posted by Oherian 11/18/2005 8:02 PM | remove   It's for dramatic effect, right? ;) Posted by lil-trouble 11/28/2005 5:19 PM | remove   Of course! Everything I do is dramatic. Posted by rogerdodger2010 2/13/2010 4:03 PM | remove   I worked here during the summer of 1980 as a college student. It's sad to see the place this way. The footbridge connected the business office on US 119 to the refinery. Houses on the US 119 side of the river were company owned and occupied by the plant superintendent and other management staff. I heard that there was a fire and Pennzoil did not re-open. When I worked there it was obvious that the company was no longer investing in this facility and its days were numbered. Posted by lil-trouble 2/14/2010 4:54 AM | remove   That would explain the houses we found near by that were also abandoned. Posted by Oherian 2/15/2010 7:48 PM | remove   One of those houses is also in the DB if you look for it. I had a feeling it was for management staff. Thank you for adding your perspective!
