Enter in Google Maps "Gatineau Park p11 O'Brien Chelsea Quebec" to arrive at the Carbide Wilson Ruins. It is 38 minutes from 2200 the Ottawa Adventidt Church.
Located in a deciduous forest near Meech Lake, the ruins are the last remaining traces of a fertilizer plant constructed by little-known inventor Thomas Leopold Willson. The complex originally included three buildings: an acid condensation tower, a dam and a generating station. Unfortunately, the ruins were never preserved. The tower was destroyed by fire and, today, only its foundation remains. The dam and plant, its gaping windows still visible, stand near the cascading falls as a reminder of a rich and innovative company — and a glimpse of our scientific history.
