Demolition of a 150' X 14'-6" Ø Radial Brick Chimney

The installation of new boilers at the Mid-Hudson Psychiatric Hospital meant the 150' tall radial brick chimney was no longer required. With the chimney located immediately adjacent to the boilerhouse, demolition using mechanical methods such as hydraulic breakers or similar techniques was not possible. Therefore, Gibraltar Chimney was contracted to demolish the structure to grade elevation in a piece-meal fashion.
