Residents Upset by Size, Appearance of New Pump Station

ABC2: One resident of the Pikesville neighborhood, north of I-695, considers the new, larger expansion a "monstrosity."

Residents along Windsong Court in Pikesville say an expanded sewage pump station in their neighborhood is an eyesore, according to an article on ABC2 TV's website.

"It was built by Baltimore County to replace one that sat here for 40 years. Neighbors here knew a new station was coming," but they didn't know it would be twice as big, the article states.
