ISHPEMING -- After two years of waiting, a senior housing complex will soon be using cheaper, alternative energy.

Pioneer Bluff in Ishpeming received some of the parts that will complete their wind turbine project.

So far, only blade hubs and steel pipes have been delivered.

They'll be assembled to the tower sitting in front of the 88-unit apartment building.

MTI Energy, which took over the project, says it will provide 500,000 to 750,000 kilowatt hours a year and should take no more than a month to complete, weather permitting.
