TL;DR Summary

The controlled implosion of Detroit's trash incinerator smokestack marks the end of a yearlong demolition process of the former Waste Energy Facility. The incinerator's stack has contributed to air pollution and health concerns for surrounding neighborhoods for 34 years. The incinerator hasn't been in operation for four years, and since then, the city's trash has been going to landfills outside of the city. The future use of the site has not been determined.
