    Most people don’t know that where there are Central offices for the phone company usually AT&T you will see a park or other municipal building or open space that was built in the end of the 1940s or 1950s and underneath our bunkers used to house telecommunications equipment for the military to be able to communicate in the event of a war
    They have hardened cables that directly connect each of these facilities
    The smaller towns usually just have a hardened basement underneath the central office but the larger cities all built these block long hardened nuclear bunkers that could withstand anything but a direct strike
    I’ve seen quite a few of them and some of them have been decommissioned but most still sit quietly waiting for the day they will be called upon

    But take a look at your city and look at the map and you’ll see a park directly across from the central office or next to it or some other town buildings that usually when you look at the date they were built it’s usually the 50s
    Here in my town they built the high School stadium over the top of it and it’s two city blocks square

    It’s amazing that the people that are still alive that saw these places built never spoke about them

    People took the Cold War and National Defense very seriously and they don’t talk about these places even now and when they built the one in my city the city was much much smaller and it was the largest building project to date that was built here

    I looked for photos and you would think that there would be photos taken of this being built but because it was part of the National Defense there weren’t any photos taken

    You missed something with the green cemetery. A part of it still exists in the basement of The First Church of Christ, also known as the Center Church. Benedict Arnold’s wife is buried there.

    In New haven the cemetery under the Green still has ground level places under some buildings were you can see headstones in the basement I think it is under the church too .

    I know a lot more about your fucked up state, hidden in plain sight indeed. what else on Yale campus, a certain secret society’s Tomb? Unfortunately much of eastern CT is under a geomantic hex

    The New Haven Green is actually an old colonial cemetary. Bones only last 75 years so they are long gone. There is nothing but soil under the ground. In England, cemetary plots can be reused after 75 years because of this reason.

    I heard a story all of my life that downtown Derby has tunnels underneath it that were built as air raid shelters.

    Fly over dudleytown area and try to get an interview with Dark Entry Forest Association. Lou Milano from i95 ROCK FM did some coverage of this area but it is shrouded in mystery.
