Breezewood is mostly fine, you're on a giant empty stretch of road for hours otherwise.
If you want a truly dystopian moment, drive I-64 at the border of Kentucky and West Virginia in the middle of the night. Towering smokestacks all around you, lit up like daytime for 24 hour processing, it's like you slipped into a 70s sci fi film.
There are some pictures online, search for Catlettsburg Refinery. It's like the opposite of Breezewood. Whereas the Breezewood photos make it look worse than it actually is, none of the photos of Catlettsburg quite capture the awe and foreboding you get from staring directly into a city-scale refinery.
yeah sure, it can be only one place on earth because there are so many variables in that picture that it would very unlikely any other place has the exact same structures laid out in the same way. That said I know a couple places from about 3 decades ago in Utah that looked pretty similar, and I've done road trips and seen similar congestions of signs and roadside businesses.
