resident and other groups. The transmission system that the R.L Hearn station supplied was a network of buried and overhead lines and transformer stations in Toronto. The city has been supplied by stepdown transformer stations from the east and west since the R. L. Hearn closed, which are becoming overloaded, especially in the summer. On June 21, 2010, architecture firm Behnisch Architekten presented a proposal for converting the Hearn site into a three-pad arena. This plan did not proceed. The facility remains in the hands of the lease-holders with options that include extensions lasting until 2041. The property is not suitable for residential development because it is too close to the Portlands natural gas generating plant. Other uses The nearly abandoned plant attracted photographers and urban explorers who published their work on websites and in photography exhibits in recent years. On June 15, 2008, Ryan Nyenhuis, an urban explorer trespassing in the plant fell three storeys into a coal chute, and was trapped for three hours when he became pinned under a steel plate. He suffered serious injuries and died two days later in hospital.

It was usually used to substitute as an industrial factory because of its basic industrial appearance and its iconic tall smokestack. This trend began to decrease in the early 2000s but the generating station still appears on TV from time to time, including in 12 Monkeys from 2015-2018 as Raritan Valley National Laboratory, the home of a time machine in a post apocalyptic world. In 2010, the station was used as the backdrop for the climactic scene of the movie RED, other scenes of which were shot in the Toronto area. In 2018, the station was also used for a location shoot for the Star Trek: Discovery episode "Brother". Additionally, it was used as a film location for Shazam! (film). Furthermore, the station was also used as a filming location for Disney Channel original films (DCOM) Zombies 2, known formally in the Disney trilogy as Seabrook Power and is where the musical number 'Flesh & Bone' takes place.
