So I leave you with one more shot from the evening.
Sitting next to Bishop Park is the Wyandotte Power Plant which is owned by Wyandotte Municipal Services. It is one of 41 public power systems in Michigan and 2,000 in the United States. It was originally formed in 1889 as a for profit company but after a vote by the people it became a municipal company.
The power plant above generates 70 Megawatts and can use either coal, natural gas or tire derived fuel. Tire derived fuel is more efficient than coal and is cheaper. It also sends less waste to our landfills. In 2001, the plant burned the equivalent of 2.1 million tires.
I kind of liked the light on this building.
