We'll be lucky if they take the buildings down and remove the piles of, well, whatever that is. With even more luck, Mother Nature will reclaim it. Beyond that, it's hard to imagine.
That would be piles of coal that they make into coke for making steel. There's more coal piled there than I can ever remember. U.S. Steel was making the coke in Hamilton during the strike a few years ago and shipping it to Pittsburgh. They're probably still doing it and polluting our air instead of Pennsylvania's.
