IS THIS SEWER PLANT CONNECTICUT’S STRANGEST ATTRACTION?

The John Oliver Memorial Sewer Plant in Danbury is anything but ordinary…

When you think of Connecticut landmarks, a sewage plant probably isn’t the first thing that comes to mind, but the John Oliver Memorial Sewer Plant in Danbury is anything but ordinary.

This quirky attraction, born out of a playful feud between the popular comedian and host of the HBO show “Last Week Tonight with John Oliver” and the Connecticut town, has become a unique point of interest that adds a humorous twist to the state’s rich tapestry of historical and cultural landmarks.
