Factory from Pink Floyd's Animals Has a Rockin' Past and a Green Future

From Treehugger:

animals album cover

There's no band in history with more iconic album covers than Pink Floyd, and there's perhaps no more iconic album cover than that of the band's 1977 album Animals. The photo, with that big inflatable pig soaring between the towers, has become something of a cultural symbol and still conjures notions as surreal as the album it represents. While the acid-soaked 70s and Pink Floyd may be confined to memories from a bygone era, the factory from that album cover still stands. But, just as classic rock albums of yore get to be rediscovered by each new generation, so too might that gloomy old building from one of the rock's most memorable albums get another life.
