Building
A series of recent military buildings may be seen at this site. These buildings have not been measured, and represent the immediate precursor of the modern military activity on the site. The buildings include the remains of what appear to be fuel bunkers for a very large generator and the tether blocks for guys that supported a mast or aerial that was situated on the roof. These buildings were constructed after 1960.
