  • 20 years ago, Bruce Francisco and his business partner bought an old Cold War missile base in the Adirondacks. After a few million dollars in renovations, the silo is now a luxury home.

      Clean out that missile tube, make is a giant spotless clean room, install top to bottom Server racks, host games and bitcoin servers, while using geothermal air circulation and natural ambient outdoor temperature for cooling. Once cleaned up, dried, and reconditioned into a clean room facility, it make an excellent I.T. location for BETA SITE backup severs, backup data storage, and related digital products. Just add electricity, data cable hard lines, and satellite internet dish communications.

    Hardly a Luxury home, Bunkers are a pain to renovate, things start rusting, and water leaks filling up the lower chambers.
    If it broke in a few years after its prime, I doubt a few clean ups will prevent future problems.

    I'd get the missile silo base thing, but now it says it's $995,000 for the original 19 acres, added on to that you can also get 4 acres with a log cabin for $259,000, a 10 acre runway lot w/ hanger for $150,000, 7 lots with about 8 acres each for $476,000, and 125 more acres (undivided) for $150,000, so if you buy the ENTIRE set of properties that go together it's $2,030,000

      @juliustheillustrious7727 6 лет назад +32

      I would. It is times more lilkey that the russians have re-evaluated their priority target and thus ruled out and empty silo off their hitlist, as they don't waste warheads on an empty base; they have countless other active strategic targets they have to take car of. In fact, they do satellite runs over the country to analyse and assess the US strategic capacities and plan their strike options accordingly. They also make sure that every silo registered as decomissioned has been properly and exhibitly neutralized (the silo slide roof has been taken out and completely roofed/paved over, or jammed with noticeable blocks, welds and other measures that can be seen from space).

      the most expensive part would be the renovations, and also remember, they still havn't done anything with the part where the missile used to be placed, the missle silo is only about half way done :) i'd turn that part into bedrooms and rent them out considering there is 100 acres of land there also.

    It could be a movie where something happens and a group of people who know of the place get to this place and try to ride out whatever had happened in the country, or the world.

Upstate New York was prime real estate for the silos, plus the base was only about 30-40 miles away.

    1:21 : nothing will survive direct nuclear hit no matter its durability because during the first seconds of the detonation the ground zero (were the bomb hits) its actually hotter than the suns core temperature due to the thermonuclear reaction, this will evaporate anything faster than you can blink in so a direct hit from a nuke to the bunker will mean its inevitable destruction, I guess what he meant to say is that this door can survive a blast wave after the initial hit.

    Without the actual silo being usable/livable, you're pretty much looking at 3-story underground house with a landing strip. It would be great if they could make a mock missile in the silo, where you can walk in as a spaceman and press the button and like take-off with hydraulic shocks shacking the missile.

This place would be awesome after everything was restored back to the way it used to be, think of how many people you could creep out on skype or irl :)

    Big issue is that in case there is a war, missile silo's are the first one to be blown up by the invading force. You wont be seen as a civilian.

    Do you keep walkie talkies on your hip? Seems like if that weren't in place, you'd be scaring the scrap out of each other on an hourly basis. Still though, looks cool. I knew a friend who lived in a basement apartment and I hated waking up to no daylight. I probably wouldn't last well in this.

    Whatever destroys this world will come from the depths of that silo.

    I would love to live in a missile silo. It will keep you safe if nuclear war breaks out and it seems pretty cozy.
