Built over a span of 10 years beginning in 1969, this underground system of tunnels was intended to be a nuclear bomb shelter for up to (it was said) 40% of the population, with enough water and provisions for several months.

Nearly 20 miles of connected tunnels spread out under an area of more than 30 square miles.
