Here are some pictures of the Brooklyn Waterworks, which at the time of its completion was considered "Long Island's most ambitious Romanesque Revival design." It was designed by Frank Freeman, and built in 1890 in Freeport. After it was decommissioned in the 1970's, Nassau County and a series of developers sat on their hands while the structure slowly fell apart. In 1989, the structure caught fire, destroying most of the roofs. Citing a danger to the public, the Town of Hempstead filed a demo permit, and began tearing down the building on August 30th, 2010.
