This massive 100,000 square foot underground vault was designed for continuity of goverment.

MIDWEST

$2.5M

This historic communications vault is one of just three of this type that were ever built. This site cost AT&T $25 Million to construct in 1967 dollars -- that is the cost just for the building, not for the telecommunications equipment that once operated inside, or all the systems and other equipment. To replace just the building in today's dollars, it would cost at least $110 Million! That's quite a head-start on construction costs!

 

The history of this bunker is fascinating. Serving as one of the Ground Entry Points for Operation Lookinglass, this bunker has played an important role in US national security, continuity of government planning, and transcontinental communications.
