Texas Eastern

This facility pumps oil down a pipeline that stretches halfway across America, into Texas. During World War II, Adolph Hitler had a plan to blow up this complex to disrupt our oil reserves. Fortunately, the war ended before Germany could act on the plan. It's about one block from the edge of my town.
