Is this one of the two Nitrate plans built in Muscle Shoals as part of the Muscle Shoals Project authorized under the National Defense Act of 1916 and later rolled into the TVA?

what a wonderful shot!

I think this was an early conceptualization of the Internet.

Indeed, its a series of tubes.

wow, great shot!

I'm not sure why the [sic], perhaps it is it for "stator"? Quoting Wikipedia: The stator is the stationary part of an electric generator or electric motor. The non-stationary part on an electric motor is the rotor. The stator is indeed what is shown here, as far as I can tell.

excellent shot!

this is a beautiful shot, thanks LOC! looks like a weber smokestack, but a little hard to tell. anyone have any other ideas?
