Does anyone know what kind of plant/factory this is?

I have often seen this thing as I drive to my barber's shop. Today I brought my camera so I could photograph it. Talk about an attractive nuisance! I found I could drive from a main road down a short driveway and parked next to this plant. I thought of what my eight year old inner child would do at a place like this. I would have been climbing this thing like a monkey! Even at my current advanced age of 72 the ladders and stairs looked very inviting. Common sense prevailed (for the most part) as I satisfied myself by taking this photo while keeping an eye out for a cop who might ask what I'm dong here. I never saw a "keep out" sign. The place is fenced in but the gate was wide open.

Cows and hay to feed them.

Perhaps a asphalt plant.

It's a future shot of Washington DC if our current administration continues on like it has.

That makes sense Bob. I noticed puddles of hardened asphalt in the parking lot near the broken tanks. Oil, gas and coal are big industries in this part of PA.

Looks like a temporory road paving material unit. (for mixing asphalt and stone). Cheaper to just leave it there after no longer useful.

It ruins a thread for me when people make gratuitous political or religious comments.

I guess that's the point. What you find funny others find irritating. It might be funny in another place. It just doesn't belong here in my opinion. You don't have to agree with me.

I asked my Barber who lives just up the hill from it. He informed me that is an abandoned asphalt paving plant.
This should end the rumors that this is an actual photo of the economic recovery plan.
For those so inclined, it's still open and you are free to dump as much of your money as you care to into the top of the hopper.
I got a chuckle from all your responses. Thanks.
And the winner is:
