CINCINNATI (FOX19) - On Friday morning the remaining smokestack structure at the site of the former Beckjord Power Station was imploded.
The teams responsible for the implosion said they worked closely with local officials, the Pierce Township fire department, New Richmond Fire and EMS, transportation officials and other local personnel to ensure all local and state guidelines were followed.
Beckjord was built in the 1950s as a coal-burning behemoth and closed by Duke Energy in 2014.
