I'm OK with the recovery of energy from waste (nobody often complains about Bellozane) but placing the fugly monster here on the coast which should be protected at all costs, where prevailing SW winds will blow the toxic fumes over the most populated areas of the island, and right next to a coastal Ramsar site at danger from toxic waste - could it only happen in Jersey? Do we have a global monopoly on disastrously bad government? :)
Just what we need to spoil the view from the east...
.. closer.
An unwelcome presence from what should be olde-worlde charm at Havre des Pas...
.. not good.
- not forgetting that the policy of allowing 7 storey giants along the south coast from Havre des Pas to Greve d'Azette (but nowhere else?!!) is going to ruin this place anyway.
So here it is, merry incinerator, everybody's having no fun.
.. closer.
Not unduly miserable from the harbour, at least.
Hidden behind other festering eyesores at West Park.
.. but an odious lump on the horizon from farther west...
.. closer.
From South Hill...
.. it doesn't make much difference...
.. amongst all the other industrial ugliness...
.. but it does somewhat spoil the view from La Collette Gardens...
.. which used to be full of tourists when we had hotels around here, when we had tourists, when we hadn't priced the island out of the game.
Oh dear. Relax in a Green Space by power stations and incineration, enjoy the fumes.
Might as well close the gardens.
All we need now is an emergency access road along here...
.. to destroy the prom, too.
It's a good job Jersey still has some good points in its favour, or I'd be out of here like a shot!

Enjoyed the sarcy comments!
Well - you show perfectly that it can be seen from most angles! Ugly ugly ugly :(
glad iv'e moved home from that area as used to get fall out from JEC when they fired up the boilers,
my friend saw chaps in high vis jackes taking theodolite meausments around the gardens, thats probebly where the new road will go. he also saw some sort of megavoltage JEC sub station being built where the learner drivers practice, bye bye Jersey as we knew it! may as well move to France.
Thanks for the comments.
Anon, the new substation works can be seen here.
