George Westinghouse was alive and very important during Tesla's lifetime. He is well known for having been a genuinely benevolent businessman rather than a "robber-baron."
At the end of the 1880s, both Tesla and Westinghouse owned electric companies. Unlike so many others, they also shared a common dream-goal. Both envisioned power generators using Niagara Falls in New York State.
