Following the first implosion at the Avon Lake power plant earlier this year, the final implosion happened Thursday morning.
You can watch the implosion below:
The first implosion happened back in July.
Residents were urged to stay indoors while the plant's remaining five structures were taken down in a "controlled, short-duration implosion." Additionally, authorities asked for residents to have their windows and doors closed and that they operate their HVAC system normally with filters installed.
Multiple police and fire agencies were on-site to ensure everyone's safety, and steps are being taken to protect the area's air quality.
Some revelers turned out and tailgated the event.
