The plant was constructed by OG&E in the 1920s and generated power by burning coal until it was decommissioned in 1983. OG&E sold the plant in 1986. In 1989, the ODOL discovered illegal asbestos removal and salvage operations were occurring at the site and shut down the operations. The building was locked down and secured to prevent trespass and exposure. Several attempts were made to cleanup the asbestos; however, financial and legal impediments prevented the cleanup.

That’s a pretty tight location man, and this is a great looking website.
I might add, although this place is awesome beyond words, its dangerous. There is rusty metal, tons of broken glass, unstable floors, holes in metal grating (of which I came close to falling several stories from not watching where I was going), and unstable stairs. Thats just to name a few hazards. Oh and its on private property. So, I’m saying dont go here for safety reasons, but if you must, enter at your own risk, this place is only for the experienced explorer.
I second that. While exploring wit had h fiend Iactually lost him in a couple of areas of the bldg.
This place is massive, We were in awe of it’s size 7 stories & 2 below ground.
So fellow explorers PLEASE! be aware of your suroundings if go to this location.
As you can tell from the pics it is very dangerous!
Got some bad news. The smoke stacks are now gone, and it appears that the greedy owners are scrapping the place. That’s why they took down the smoke stacks, lots of steel. Since its being scrapped and they are obviously out for money, so I doubt the main structure will be torn down anytime soon. A building this size would be quite expsensive to demo.
