The Cheswick Generating Station’s smokestacks in Springdale were imploded shortly after 8 a.m. Friday, coming down with a crash, a huge cloud of dust and apparently taking down some utility poles along Pittsburgh Street in Springdale.

The air burst when the 750-foot stack fell damaged some power poles and lines on Pittsburgh Street.

Watch them fall.
