military, missile launch facility
This area previously held the Nike Zeus missile launchers.
Two above-ground launchers were located on the left side, about where the large building and parking lot is located. This building was added in 1999.
The peaked-roof building in just right of center was the launch support office. Just east (right) of it was a large berm, in the oval area. Further east was another berm and then a Zeus Launch Cell, the remains of which can be seen.
