Gasometers have largely passed as a result of high pressure distribution systems.
Ours are disused or removed in St. Louis. Wikipedia explains that they are rare in the U.S. and those were some of the only ones.
The UK gasometers are largely disused, but the sites are expensive to decontaminate and reuse since they were frequently used to produce "town gas" from coal.

I don't think it had been used for years, but it was a notable part of the Gloucester landscape.
