Abandoned Missile Complex Near Tucson Goes On Sale

Been feeling a little overwhelmed by today's political landscape? Maybe it's time to get away for a while, maybe even off the grid. Well now you have a chance to go underground until everything blows over.

A decommissioned subterranean missile complex just went on the market, and at just about 30 minutes northwest of Tucson, you get both solitude and the option of rejoining society.

It used to house an armed Titan II missile, which, in case you’re not up to speed on your military history, was used to carry a nuclear warhead, but you won’t find a nuclear arsenal down there anymore. The bunker was shut down in the 80s, and the missile was removed.

This place is bringing all the industrial-chic vibes, complete with three blast doors made to withstand shockwaves, an access portal, a command center and a decontamination area, according to Business Insider.

The complex plus about 13 acres are on the market for just shy of $400,000.
