This is a very nice bunker... would take abit to get operational but over all, not to bad, get those air vents going for a few months to dry her out and get started on power and water 👍 it's a large living

Sad that someone owns this and can't even put in a sump pump to keep the water out. I would love to have one of these places.

@@richardvg7670 I know that's what happened at the Nike base in Lumberton, NJ. They let the underground storage areas flood deliberately to prevent access (like at many other sites). It's all built over with a housing development now. If the homeowners drilled down 20 feet they might be surprised at what they'd find.

They actually make some pretty cool floating pumps. Run a garden hose to it, the pump floats just under the water surface until it pumps most of it out and lands on the bottom, then it pumps the water down to half an inch or less. They take surprisingly little power, so a 1500W portable generator would run one for hours on a gallon of gas. Edit: This is the first thing I would do if I bought one of these properties and it didn't have power. If you need more water removed, rent a 5000 GPH pump for $150/day.

Same here bro. My father didn't take me to anything like this and didn't teach me anything practical and he shunned any kind of hobby I had. I was just supposed to study nonstop in school and college. He hated my old cars and my love of tinkering. My 3 main escapes while I lived at home were reading, gaming and riding my mountain bike everyday after school till past dark. Whenever something bad happened it was my fault. Whenever I was doing badly at school or college it was my fault. He passed away when I was 25 and it was the biggest feeling of relief and I was no longer tormented and I don't miss him.

Two things I was looking for that I didn’t see- a pump room for keeping the water at bay (surprised there wasn’t more!) and a hatch/gantry crane for getting large things down there. That looked like a Detroit diesel powering the generator. To get any part of that in or out would require a hoist, and no doubt these geniuses had a plan for that

You are right on. There was a pump room and there is also a large hoist area at the top of the stairwell that we walked in on. The hoist is no longer there but it’s obvious that there was one. Good points.

That so many documents exist at this place is remarkable. They should be preserved and photographed, so they aren't forever lost. They are an important part of Cold War History. Might you please consider discussing this with the landowner and the Ohio Historical Society? Photographing and scanning of these documents will leave a record for future generations. All the Best!

I totally GET the cool appeal of looking into old abandoned places. Especially ones that are 'secret' or ones you never knew about. But let's get real. You could do a video of looking through the basement of my 60 year-old house and probably get as much interest. "Wow; look at this...how cool is that old thing...what was this big machine used for?...etc." More interesting are the "secret" places that are still in operation, like data centers and telco central offices. But they're not so easy to get into. I've seen many such places, and after 10 minutes, they're just boring closets or waerhouses.
