Mining News Pro - It took only 10 seconds to implode two 500-foot cooling towers that belonged to the Brayton Point Power Station in Somerset.
According to Mining News Pro - The concrete structures demolished last Saturday were the last remains of the last coal-fired plant in the northeastern U.S. state. Originally built in 1953, the facility provided electricity to millions in both Massachusetts and Rhode Island for five decades until it closed in 2017.
According to the Associated Press, the new owners of the property, Commercial Development Co., plan to turn the site into a facility dedicated to supporting offshore wind farms.
The hundreds of people that gathered around Somerset’s waterfront to witness last weekend’s event also flooded social media with videos of the demolition.
