Missile Bases - For Sale

Post by ann_marie »

So my parents are always looking for real estate and I stumbled upon this website www.missilebases.com and there is a Communications Vault in Paris, Missouri which is only about 40 minutes from me that is for sale. You have to read the description on the front page for it and then scroll to the bottom and look at the custom home in Northern California. I found it very interesting, but maybe I'm just paranoid? I would love to live in a place like this.

Very cool, very cool indeed! I would like to buy that one in Paris, MO. I have to credit, but I don't have the funds :-( My dad has the funds, but I'm more then sure that he'll buy it.

I ment to say that I'm pretty sure my dad won't buy it... he's to busy spending money on his cattle ranch opporation in Oklahoma.

What a cool site, I spent way to many hours looking at the abandoned silo, There is a Old Nike site I think in Robertsvill Mo. that is now a School I think most of it is filled in but they still use some of it,
And I could see living in one of them after a lot of redoing Talk about Home Security

That is a very cool site you stumbled upon. I would love to live in one of these, with maybe something odd built on the surface to cover it. Such as an igloo or somethign with no internal walls. :lol:

I am almost interested in talking to the bank to see what they say. Not just on loaning it to me, but about loaning ON something like that haha. 8) I can't afford it by no means but it would be fun.


If I buy this tape.... can anybody cinvert to DVD? :?

Getting nuked is the least of my concern at this point. :wink:

Theres only one Atlas II remaining in functioning order. It's near Tuscon, Arizona and has its silos door halfway open to keep the Russians happy. Here are a few pictures of the place http://world.std.com/~bor/arizona/arizona.htm

Not so long ago, I was obsessed with finding the locations of the ones near me. Here are some links to locations and info:
