| Halla water intaking station, Kotka |
 |
This water station is embedded to the foundations of a concrete bridge on the island of Halla. Apparent user for the water it took has been the wood industry on the island. Now that the industry is all ceased there is no need for water pumping here and the station is disused.
 |
Brick walls of the pumping station continue from where stone and concrete ends. |

They have taken care of securing the small curiosity. The thing just is, that this bushy pit is very peaceful and thus suitable place to use violent accessing methods. Even the thick steel sheets over windows and the door haven't been adequate for protecting the place. |
 |
View from the entrance window. The place is pretty damn reeky, since there is still a wet space under below the floor. |
 |
There was this pool. |
 |
I'm not quite sure why there was need to mix something to the water, or mix the water itself, so well. But here it is anyway, the pool and some mixers. |
 |
Mixers from closer range. |
 |
Machine space is empty. |
 |
Some cable hoist thing. |
 |
Unofficial visits had been going on for quite some time already. |
 |
Looks better without flash but informational side is lacking. |
 |
Access point to the water space. Not inviting. |
 |
Poetic.. |
