The Harvey Power Plant, a former power plant in Harvey, North Dakota, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2020. [2]

It was built in 1930 and served Harvey and much of Wells County with electric power until 1954. It was the city's first and only power plant. [1]

Its nomination for National Register listing was considered by the North Dakota State Historic Preservation Review Board, located in Bismarck, at its April 24, 2020 meeting via web conference. [1] It was officially listed on June 5, 2020. [2]

A webpage of Rosin Preservation states, as of February 2021, that:

This former Harvey power plant is being converted into a mental health “oasis” to serve this rural region of North Dakota. Once renovated, the building will serve as a physical symbol and metaphor for the mental and emotional healing offered within its walls. [3]

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Central Steam Heat Plant</span> United States historic place

The Central Steam Heat Plant, commonly known as Steam Plant Square, or simply as the Steam Plant, is a historic building in Downtown Spokane, Washington. Originally built to provide steam heating to more than 300 buildings in Spokane's city center, the Steam Plant served that purpose until the 1980s, when it was no longer viable. In the 1990s, the Steam Plant and adjacent Seehorn-Lang Building were converted into Steam Plant Square, a commercial, retail and restaurant center. The conversion maintained many of the industrial steam plant structures such as furnaces, boilers, catwalks and pipe networks, which can still be seen and explored by visitors and patrons. The Steam Plant's pair of 225-foot-tall stacks have been a unique and iconic aspect of the city's skyline for more than a century, and are illuminated from their base at night. If the stacks were considered to be a building, they would rank as the third tallest in the city.
