A thermal power plant in Zhengzhou, China, built in 1953, has been demolished to make way for a park and residential areas. The demolition, which took place on Tuesday, involved the blasting of three chimneys and three water towers in the western suburbs of Zhengzhou, central China's Henan. The plant was decommissioned in 2019 after more than 65 years of operation, primarily due to environmental concerns. The area will be developed into futuristic residential neighborhoods and a new people's park.
