A neighborhood in
Niagara Falle, NY which was the site of notoriety and international attention following the discovery of 21000 tons of
toxic waste buried directly underneath. A school and a residential neighborhood was built on top of it. Evacuation began in 1978. It is now the Love Canal Leachate Treatment Facility, and residential areas around it are known as Black Creek.

rows of teeth. Is that normal?

toxic waste.
