Jason Waltman from G & D Viking Glass, Sioux Falls, stands in the window opening as Nate Carlson puts the new window frame into place Aug. 29 at the former power plant on East Main Street in Luverne. The city of Luverne is investing $200,000 this year and next to tuck-point and install new windows. The building houses the city’s electrical department equipment and a generator to be used by Missouri River Energy Services to provide back-up power in case of an emergency. Portions of the power plant were built in 1915, with additions added in the ’30s and again in the ’40s.
