The island Lobau is about 4372 yards across, from N.E. to S.W., and about 2240 yards from N.W. to S.E., convexing, towards Entzersdorf and Essling, in a large, regular curve, round which the left branch of the river flows, in a widt of about 141 yards.
The pontoneers having procured, at Vienna, materials sufficient for the construction of two bridges of boats, the island of Lobau, which the Austrians had but feebly occupied, was taken possession of, on the 18th of May, without much difficulty, by some troops of General Molitor's division, which were transported in row-boats.
The village of Essling was taken and retaken five times in the course of the 21st; and on the 22d, that village, and Gross Aspern likewise, became the scenes of repeated and sanguinary operations, with alternate success and discomfiture.

 Vienna: Securing the Contaminated Site Lobau
In the area of the oil storage facilities of the Upper Lobau the soil is contaminated with crude oil, or rather hydrocarbons, since the bombings in WWII.
Due to groundwater flow regimes in the Lobau Port and in the New Danube, which vary depending on the changing water levels of the Danube, the Lower Lobau may be polluted.
The area of the oil storage facilities was therefore categorised as a contaminated site with top priority and included in the atlas of contaminated sites.

Both within the range of the economy and within the private sector we deal very carelessly and wastefully with the raw material oil.
The old oil wagons, which are to be seen here, at the freight station Lobau in Vienna in the midst of apparently unaffected nature, remind of our oil reserves - already quite used up and only limited usable.
Aren't they a mute reminder do deal more carefully with energy and not to waste it thoughtlessly?
