The Yonkers Power Station was a major electrical generating facility that operated in Yonkers, New York, throughout the 20th century. The facility played a crucial role in providing power to the rapidly growing New York metropolitan area, utilizing state-of-the-art steam turbines and generators of its era.
The power station's operations required extensive use of industrial equipment and machinery that demanded regular maintenance and repair work. Like many power generation facilities of its time, the Yonkers Power Station relied heavily on asbestos-containing materials for insulation and fire protection throughout its infrastructure.
Exposure to asbestos fibers can lead to several devastating health conditions, including mesothelioma, lung cancer, and asbestosis. Other serious conditions linked to asbestos exposure include ovarian cancer, laryngeal cancer, renal (kidney) cancer, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Asbestos-related diseases have an unusually long latency period, often taking decades for symptoms to manifest. This unique characteristic is addressed by New York's "discovery rule" for asbestos cases.

For personal injury claims in New York, victims have three years from the date of discovery to file a claim. In wrongful death cases related to asbestos exposure, families have two years from the date of death to take legal action. The Porter Law Group can help ensure your claim is filed within these crucial deadlines.
