The Bunker
This original 1964 Cold War era nuclear bomb shelter was built by AT&T in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Defense; a self-sufficient power regeneration installation for military defense communications as part of the AUTOVON network linked to NORAD. The entire facility is comprised of double layer steel reinforced concrete, sitting upon a nine foot thick blast slab, bermed over with earth. The two exterior entrances have armored steel blast doors. The bunker was built to sustain operations with 5 people for up to 30 days.
