In a matter of seconds, two 500-foot cooling towers from Massachusetts' last coal-fired power plant reduced to rubble.
The two 500-foot cooling towers of the former Brayton Point Station collapse after explosive charges are detonated in Somerset, Mass., on Saturday, April 27, 2019. The plant had burned coal since 1963. By the time it stopped producing power in 2017, it was the last coal-fired plant in Massachusetts.
The controlled demolition went off as scheduled at 8 a.m. Saturday at the former Brayton Point Station in Somerset. Live video showed the giant towers along Mount Hope Bay implode and a large cloud of dust rise into the air.
