It's a shame they did all that work to tear out the power plant and then it doesn't get used for anything.

Yeah, always sucks to see a cool old power station bite the dust. Sure would’ve been a cool museum but i imagine it would’ve been hard to really convert into any sort of museum.

It was an older, smaller coal fired power plant, only producing 568MW. The plant was decommissioned in 2011, demolition began in 2015 and was completed in 2016.
