Marysville Michigan Power Plant Implosion
This video is delightfully cut by high school students. The plant, a former coal plant—which the video notes was dubbed the “Mighty Marysville”—was brought down in 2015. It had been in operation since 1922, but it all came down in a matter of seconds.
The site will eventually be home to condos and dining and shopping options. But it’s undergoing an assessment and cleanup by the county to, in the words of local official Geoff Donaldson, “get it to an industrial standard that wouldn’t spread the contamination beyond the site.”
