On Nov. 22, 2018, OPG announced the sale of our R.L. Hearn Generating Station site located on Unwin Avenue in the Portlands area of Toronto to Studios of America Corporation (Studios), the long-term tenant and property manager of the property. The R.L. Hearn Generating Station was the site of Canada’s first 100 Megawatt (MW) steam turbo-generator station, eventually expanding to a capacity of 1,200 MW. The station produced electricity from 1951 to 1983 and at one time supplied 10% of Ontario’s power. Many OPG operators, maintainers, technicians and professionals began their careers and were trained at the station and then went on to work at OPG’s renewable generation and nuclear stations.

How many movies and TV shows can you name which involve a scene set it an abandoned factory? Dozens, right? Well, a fair few were shot at the old Hearn Generating Station, a former power station in the Port Lands district of Toronto. Although it’s not technically a tourist attraction, the site has been attracting urban explorers and photographers for years, and has also been used for several big parties and music festivals. If you are going to take a look at the building, be extremely careful as there have been accidents here.

Would give 5 stars but I'm not a fan of having to hide my identity now that I'm a superhero after visiting this power station.
Great building but how can I get inside to make some pictures and explore?
We film here all the time.
