The section on the United States starts off with this line: "Gasometers are comparatively rare in the United States."
Even rarer: Not one mention of any gasometers in Los Angeles or Southern California.  |
NYC used to have gasometers. In the "Godfather" (1972) you can see a big one in the backround at the cemetary when they buried the old man. Probably in Queens or Brooklyn or the Bronx?
