Drag words into the blanks.

The ruins of the South Fremantle Power Station have stood empty since 1985, home only to urban explorers and street 1. Opened in 1951, the power station was once a pillar of progress for the expanding 2 demands of Perth. Here it stood proud and strong for 34 years, supplying energy to its surrounding metropolis until 1985 when it was deemed to no longer be worth the 3. The doors were shuttered, and the plant’s four tall chimney stacks were demolished, leaving the rest of the plant to rot by the sea.
