The auction in question is this one for a now disused Titan Missle base. According to the auction page here is what the Base contains.

The Former Larson Air Force Base Complex 1A Titan ICBM Facility

Located Central Washington between Moses Lake and Ritzville

Ten Minutes to Interstate 90

1 1/2 hours West of Spokane

57 acres more or less

16 UNDERGROUND buildings including

3 – 160′ Tall Missile Silo

3 – (4 story) Equipment Terminal Bldgs

2 – Antenna Silos

100′ Diameter Control Dome Bldg.

125′ Diameter Power Dome Bldg.

And all that for a smooth 1.5 Million Dollars.

So the question remains. Anyone want to buy it for my birthday?
