The Northport Power Station, known as “The Stacks” by locals, is the largest power generation facility on Long Island. It is a natural gas and conventional oil electric power generating station located on the North Shore of Long Island in Fort Salonga, New York.[1] The facility was built by the Long Island Lighting Company (LILCO) in stages between 1967 and 1977,[2] and since August 2007 it has been owned and operated by National Grid USA.[3][4] The plant's electric output is distributed by Long Island Power Authority (LIPA).[4]

In 2010, National Grid filed a lawsuit against the Town of Huntington to challenge the station's property tax levy, which at $80 million made it the most taxed building in the United States.[5] In September 2020, a settlement for a tax reduction on the facility was reached.[6]
